Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Lovely, thanks!

I seem to recall seeing that thread back at the time, but did not bother to read it in any detail, as I was not playing with those modules - at the time.

Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops!

Late in on the replies; but that's how my MM's have been accessed from almost day dot.

At the moment there are 7 I can see online, and the firmware is varied.

3 are on Version 2.1.7
2 are on Version 2.2.3
2 are on Version 3.2.47
2 more are powered down.

Despite being an Alfa or Beta (Don't recall), I still find the 3.2.47 very stable.
(Most stable maybe).

Also with 2.1.7, you don't have the option to set the Hostname (Which then shows in the browser tab name instead of just esp-link.

So of the above listing show as just esp-link on the tabs, while the others tabs are titled Esp-01, 05, 06 & 07, relating to those specific devices.

Edit:- To Grog, the one thing I haven't tried yet is running them on one of you devices that incorporates a Microbridge.

Any feedback relating to that situation?
