Topic: Help with connection

Hello together,

i´ve got trouble with the connection to my esp8266.

I have load uo the following script to the eso8266:
"
#define REMOTEXY_MODE__ESP8266POINT_SOFTSERIAL
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
#include <RemoteXY.h>

/* RemoteXY connection settings */
#define REMOTEXY_SERIAL_RX 2
#define REMOTEXY_SERIAL_TX 3
#define REMOTEXY_SERIAL_SPEED 9600
#define REMOTEXY_WIFI_SSID "RemoteXY"
#define REMOTEXY_WIFI_PASSWORD "12345678"
#define REMOTEXY_SERVER_PORT 6377"

but my smartphone and also my PC can´t find this "RemoteXY" network.
Is there something wrong? What is the fault?
Greetings

Re: Help with connection

I see you chosen the serial baud rate 9600. Check that the esp8266  works at chosen speed. ESP8266 has default baud rate 115200.
If you did not change ESP default settings then choose 115200.
If you choose 115200 then you have to use HardwareSerial. SoftSerial do not work more than 38400 baud rate.

Re: Help with connection

Norman, how do you use your ESP8266? Why do you need an arduino? Why not use ESP8266 alone?
