@Peter: Update to CMM2V5.07.02b11 worked! (A friend had a USB type A to type A cable for me.)

@the community:  

In the manual we have described the possibility to install an ESP-01 for WLAN console access. What firmware does the ESP-01 need and where can it be found?
The manual is very vague about this:

  Quote  
ESP-01 Module
There is a footprint on the PCB for connecting an ESP-01 WiFi module to COM2. Version 5.07.00 and later of
the firmware allows COM2 to be used as a serial console so if the correct USB/UART code is loaded into the
ESP-01 it will be possible to access the console of the CMM2 remotely.
At this time MMBasic does not include any Internet functions using this device in but communications can be
established using the normal serial communications protocol included in MMBasic.


And are there any plans to add connectivity (like the WebMite) to the CMM2? Personally I think that would be great.

Thanks for the help.
