hi guys, I'm using the arduino uno board with the esp8266 module i looked up the connecting diagram and the code from the following website : Getting Started with ESP8266 and Arduino: ESP8266 Arduino Interface Electronics Hub
i did everything as said but i kept getting the same error
the following error:
