How to connect two MKR1000 together.

Official Hardware MKR Family MKR 1000 WiFi

Hi

I want to connect two MKR1000 through WiFi. I was wondering if to send data to each other I have to connect both cards to the same WiFi network (like the home router for example) or I can connect them directly without using home WiFi. Thank you.

I think you can. One will have to run as an access point. Check out WiFi101 - Arduino Reference. In my download of WiFi101 there is an example called AP_SimpleWebServer that sets up an access point and waits for clients to connect.

You can use a broker as well if you want to connect 2 MKR1000 that are far away from each other (not connected on the same access point)
You can look for tutorials on youtube and there are examples in the library MQTT.
