Resetting the ESP, I get text on the terminal, but it is garbled, and no commands are being seen as sent (AT command set doesn't work, I have tried even the basic AT\r\n, to no avail). I am able to flash the esp Via esptool, but it still didn't solve the issue, and I was expecting it to reset baud back to the default for the version I am using (firmware version1.1, should be 115200). Prior to re-flashing, I was seeing the device connected to my wifi network, and afterwards, nothing, which was expected.
Being rather new to the ESP scene, I haven't found much that seems helpful, as most articles I have found, on the board, and elsewhere all point to using AT commands, which isn't helpful if serial baud doesn't seem to match, even if all valid Baud rates from 1200bps to 115200bps have been tested.
In any baud, the output on the terminal, upon reset is:

My ultimate question is, is there any hardware reset to defaults possible, and if not, any good hints on what to try next?
