I'm interested in a solution would have the esp8266 to establish a connection to some server and then I could access that server over the web and send commands to the esp8266. I guess something like having software on the esp8266 that would register with weaved.
Thanks

If you think of the problem a bit differently and have the esp device check a particular url on a regular basis with the wget() function you may be able to accomplish firewall free communication between an esp node and command/control server.

A simple usage example for the wget() function would be helpful
