Right, been having a play with my ESP2866. Managed to screw it up a few times, but have also managed to get it working again. Now because it does not have much memory, nor does it have a real RTC, just some fake one, and I do not have a Linux box apart from my RPis, so usually working from my Windows 10 machine. Now this is fine for getting into it with PUTTY, or WEBRPL, but not much use for anything else. Now I have an old router or 3 kicking about. So I thought I could make up a simple wireless network for my home monitoring. My thinking is that if I set up the router, plug in a RPi that has an RTC on it via an ethernet port, then set up the ESPs to connect to the wireless side of the router. If I can bridge between the RPi and the router so that everything is connected, I can use the RPi to send out commands to the ESPs and grad the data I want, then timestamp it and save it all to a network disk. Does that sound feasible? Something like this:
