Hi All,

I am having real problems access the AT commands.

I have the following set up between a nano and the ESP-8266:

GND------->GND
VCC-------->+3.3v
CH_PD---->+3.3v
TX--------->RX
RX--------->tx

I am using the flowing code as a serial through:

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

SoftwareSerial softSerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

void setup()
{
  uint32_t baud = 9600;
  Serial.begin(baud);
  softSerial.begin(baud);
  Serial.print("SETUP!! @");
  Serial.println(baud);
}

void loop()
{
    while(softSerial.available() > 0)
    {
      char a = softSerial.read();
      if(a == '\0')
        continue;
      if(a != '\r' && a != '\n' && (a < 32))
        continue;
      Serial.print(a);
    }
   
    while(Serial.available() > 0)
    {
      char a = Serial.read();
      Serial.write(a);
      softSerial.write(a);
    }
}




When i send AT the blue led flashes once very quickly on the ESP-8266 but i get no response back.

I have tried various baud rates but to no avail.

I have been searching for day on the web, but to no avail, anyone see what I am missing?

thanks in advance
