So ive connected the circuit as shown in the attached image, and arduino has the following code:
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial wifi(2,3); //Rx, Tx
void setup() {
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("WIfi Started");
wifi.begin(115200);
}
void loop() {
if(Serial.available() > 0){
byte b = Serial.read();
wifi.write(b);
}
if(wifi.available() > 0){
byte b = wifi.read();
Serial.write(b);
}
}
Which i followed from this video on youtube, which got me closest in getting it running.
The only difference is that i didnt use a voltage divider fot the Uno Tx(5V) to esp Rx, as i didnt have such small resistor values.
The baud rate is 115200 as I have the older firmware and i could not flash the new one.
Now, as shown in the attached images, im not able to connect to any access points. It shows OK when i connect but it doesnt work after that and gives me an error. Also there are frequent errors of misplaced letters.
Is this because of the missing voltage divider? or maybe due to the higher baud rate? or anything else?
