#68364 Hello, I have an ESP8266-01 that's been giving me huge headaches in trying to have a firmware work on it and I gave up after many tries. I think it may be broken or old/unsupported, so I've decided to buy a new esp-12.

I've looked around on ebay and found http://www.ebay.com/itm/191981905297?var=491533016358 to be quite convenient, however I don't know how to solder it or what do I need. I've been using a breadboard and jumper wires to work with my current ESP which already had 8 soldered pins when I bought it.

What else do I need besides that board?
