Communication with WiFi module failed!

[JEAPI-DEV]

Hey

I'm using this module: https://www.seeedstudio.com/Grove-UART-WiFi-V2-ESP8285.html. I know the chip (ESP8285) isn't officially supported by this library. Any tips on making it work with this module?

When printing out the WiFi.status, I get the value 255. Maybe that can tell you something, maybe not.

Thanks!

I have it working with that module. https://github.com/JAndrassy/WiFiEspAT#logging

Thank you for you patience.

While checking the bound rate, I came across an error that seems to suggest the firmware might be outdated.

Firmware version is 1.6.0.0

Would it be possible to update the firmware to 1.7?

And sorry seems like you documented everything perfectly and I'm just asking questions you already answered.
