In reply to Martin G. Hi Martin G, I'm glad that this tutorial helped you in some way. The delay is mostly for stability -- so that the ESP8266 wouldn't do anything in the background while serving up the client. It is optional, really, especially if latency is a concern.

Thank you for the tutorial, that works very well I’m also pleased to see that my D1 mini clone has a good reception even outside the house, comparable to what I get with the mobile phone. Question: what are the delay(1000) statements in the HTTP handling code for? I assume they are there for a reason?

In reply to Bruce. Bruce, that’s interesting, it acts as station for me. with the given code. No farylink.

just FYI to all; If you use the code as is, it will set up a new WIFI network called FARYLINK. If you only want to connect to an existing network you should add the following line of code directly before the Wifi.begin

WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);

This puts the nodemcu in Station mode, meaning it will only connect to an existing network, and will not act as an access point.

Otherwise a great tutorial and good starting point. Thanks

hanging here :
while (WiFi.status() != WL_CONNECTED) { delay(500); Serial.print(".")

and arduino error message says:
esptool.FatalError: Timed out waiting for packet header

I can ping my printer. have to look more into how to set up an internal webserver and the innards of

In reply to Jeremy Moss. It’s right there where it says

Serial.begin(115200)

In reply to Roland Pelayo. On the underside, it says LoLin, and wemos.cc, if that's any help. I know how to change the baud rate in the serial monitor, but you said that the sketch is meant for 115200; is there a way to change what the sketch expects? I don't see anywhere it says the baud rate within the code.

In reply to Jeremy Moss. Yes you can change it to 9600 and see if it works. BTW what nodemcu board are you using? Mine don’t have anything that says I should only use 9600
