NodeMCU - Verify Sketch

[salasidis]

If I load an example program (Advanced Web Server) - It works perfectly - I can access it from PC, from phone, and USB can be plugged in at same time as WiFi is working.

Figured it out - thee gateway had to be the gateway for the WLAN to the LAN (172.16.3.1), not the gateway to the WAN (192.168.0.1)

When I press connect on the HomeSeer Web page, I get immediately on the Arduino

However, the device stays disconnected

It also properly handles a reset, as well as communicating that a disconnect occurred.

My sonicwall shows that the packets coming from homeseer, but not much in the Arduino to Homeseer direction

I disconnected the USB - Maybe can't use it and WiFi at the same time

I let it run for a while, and this is the output from the sonicwall

There is only an output from the device to a multicast address - and it is dropped?

Any ideas anyone.

[salasidis]

I installed an older version of NodeMCU (2.3.0) and that allowed it to compile.

I uploaded it successfully to the board, but so far no connection with Homeseer plugin. I use an IP address in the 172.16.3.X range, but my gateway is in the 192.168.0.X range (there is a router that bridges the segments).

I see on my sonicwall that the device gets registered when plugging and unplugging it.

I am unable to ping it (assuming it would actually respond to pings), and the blue LED on the WIFI board is never blinking

This is what I get from teh serial output

[salasidis]

I found this - but not sure how to fix it

v3.0.0 compile error with ESPhttpUpdate · Issue #8052 · esp8266/Arduino · GitHub

[salasidis]

Never mind that error. I had to reselect the NodeMCU board in the tools menu - somehow it went back to Genuine Arduino.

Now I am compiling, and get this error (after about 30 seconds of compiling)



no matching function for call to 'ESP8266HTTPUpdate::update(char*&)'

[salasidis]

I get the following error



HomeSeerBoard1:38:10: fatal error: ESP8266WiFi.h: No such file or directory
#include <ESP8266WiFi.h>
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
exit status 1
ESP8266WiFi.h: No such file or directory

I have added the NodeMCU board via Arduino Tools - Added via Board Manager

I have installed the libraries as per the Plugin (5 libraries that are copied into the Arduino/libraries folder

Get this error when compiling, as can't find the header files.

Am I missing something in the configuration of the softrware?

Thanks for any help
