Hello,
i bought the NodeMCU 1.0(ESP 12e-module) and noticed that i can only access the webserver from the network the esp is logged in.
Do you know have i can access it from everywhere?
Thanks
One method is to define port forwarding on your home router to allow incoming traffic from the internet to contact your ESP device on port 80.
There are also good reasons for not doing this.
OK i´ll think about it, Thanks
A number of ISPs periodically probe port 80 on your home IP to check for servers (usually not allowed for home connections) or they block port 80 communications to your home router. You may need to investigate using other ports if you find that is an issue and are using it for a limited application. If you are setting up a real server, most ISPs forbid that and can get pretty grumpy if you violate the rules.
