Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.

- Mon Jan 21, 2019 5:30 am #80180 Sorry for my incomplete question.

Now I have do this: I have activate the shiedl with an external power supply. Then from my computer I can see a new Wifi Netword named "AI-THINKER-0AD3xxxx", I try to connect it with "ai-thinker" password. After that my pc is connected at this shield, if I try to ping this shield from CMD with this commande "ping 192.168.4.1" I can ping it correctly.

If from the browser I digit "http://192.168.4.1" I have page not found.

After more online search I try to call this page from the browser : "http://192.168.4.1/client?command=info"

and I can see this response:

"{
"Version":{
"hardware":"0.1",
"software":"0.9.2"
},
"Device":{
"product":"Light",
"manufacturer":"Espressif Systems"
}
}"

This is all. I want to program this shield to connect it at my router. And throught http request can command the relay of it.

- Mon Jan 21, 2019 5:40 am #80182 This question fits the boarder category of "I bought xyz and I can't get it to work etc., I have no manual, guide or instructions". The important word here is "bought".

You bought it from someone; from a seller. Why not ask the seller how it works? Why didn't the seller provide instructions?

You gave them money, and then they laughed because they couldn't be bothered to give you instructions and then they laughed louder because they know people are so fixated on internet forums that they will just pester others there for answers. The 'internet' is not some global/worldwide product support hotline, working for free to support sellers who are lazy and buyers who are gullible.

Use some common sense : Do everyone a favour, and pester the seller. If you don't then this kind of support will become normal and we will all suffer. Yes I know Chinese sellers can be difficult, but I always pester them for instructions stating that I will otherwise give them very low seller feedback which they hate - they always then find some instructions and other stuff, and it is usually sufficient for my needs.
