I'm not convinced that review is relevant. The reviewer doesn't explain what they mean by "connect", but they mention a driver, so it seems as likely that they were having a problem with the serial port or with uploading, not with connecting to the Wi-Fi network.
Sure, but what about the OP?
Thats the exact reason why I bought simple use wifi functionality of espp8266 to connect to server and all other modules would be connected to uno r3.
I have done that it does shows all the access points (including mine) but when I try to connect to it using wificlient example, it just won't connect, serial monitor output is
..........
I printed the wifi status which shows its
1111111
OK, this tells you that the Wi-Fi radio of the ESP8266 microcontroller and the antenna on the board are at least somewhat functional.
yup and I dont know if you have read the original post but it does connect to my laptop's mobile hotspot and I can access the internet using that but that's not what I want to do. It just won't connect to my router access point.
Gona try on someone else wifi later
Ok apparently it is only not connecting to my wifi it connects to another one. It could be the fact that my neighbour and I share the connection he gives me connection from his router through ethernet cable to my router (which acts as access point). but I don't think that should be a problem
