Esp8266 wiring

ok but that example uses SS, so I dont know if Rx-6-Uno is connected to Rx on the esp01 module. In my example I have the nano Rx wired to the ESP01 Tx and vv.

The thing is I want to understand what the difference is. I have been going thru examples of using the ESP01 module:

  1. Uploading sketch to nano that sends AT commands to the esp01 to post data
  2. Uploading sketch to nano that uses library to post data
  3. Uploading sketch to esp01 directly that posts data to the web

And I seem to have my 'lions crossed'
