The code on github is slightly outdated, the documentation even more. I stopped mainting them because nobody seemed to care.
The bad news is that I am not going to update the documentation (most of it still holds anyway), but the good news is, I did draft a new release, with the newest code, here:
https://github.com/eriksl/esp8266-unive ... ses/tag/17It has a new feature where you can configure SSID and password much more easily than before, using a web browser on a client that you connect to the ESP's default SSID (esp, password: espespesp).
This is the complete procedure (see also the release):
Procedure:
- when the ESP8266 can't connect the configure SSID or has no SSID/password configured (yet), it will go into Access Point mode using SSID "esp".
- Take a phone or tablet and connect to this SSID "esp", use password "espespesp" (three times esp in a row).
- Take your browser to
http://192.168.4.1:24 - Select "reset WLAN configuration"
- Type SSID and password
- Click on the "set" button
- Click on the "reset" link
- The ESP8266 will now start in WLAN client mode and connect to the specified SSID and password.
To set the bridge port, use the bp command. Even better, use ? to see all commands available. You'll likely need ub, ud, us, and up as well to set the UART configuration. And don't forget to use cw to write the config to flash.
Some time ago the default "command" port was switched from 25 to 24, so use port 24 to enter commands.
