ESP --> USB UART Interface
VCC --> 3.3Vdc
RST --> 3.3Vdc
TX --> RX
RX --> TX
GND --> GND

I have CH_PD connected to VCC too.

Then, with Putty I tried to send AT commands such as AT, and when I send the command the blue led blinks every time I tried to send a command but the terminal do not write anything, even I dont get the "Ready" message when I power up. I tried 9600,57600 and 115200 baud rates and nothing all with \r\n.

I've the same problem

And thanks

My ESP 01 doesn't show any network.

I had this ESP 01 working for days without problem. Than I've disconnect it to firmware upgrade and just stopped to work before trying the firmware flashing.
So, I assume that probably some part of it just die.
In your case I don’t know because the AP (AI THINKER XXXXX ) its working

here is an update, after checking my wiring (Im using a TI Launchpad) as uART interface, now ehn i send a command Im recieving garbage only random symbols in al baud rates. What is the problem now?

I have an update too.
After 2 weeks, I've started everything from zero and it's alive again... I don’t understand but .
This is what I have done:

The firmware version is : v0.9.5.2

The attempts I've done before give errors at 3% of firmware update
