In this module, we will cover topics such as configuring WiFi settings, connecting to WiFi networks, handling WiFi events, and utilizing WiFi functionalities in IoT applications. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced developer, this module will provide you with the knowledge and skills to effectively use WiFi on the ESP8266 with Mongoose OS.

Let’s dive into the world of WiFi connectivity with the ESP8266 and Mongoose-OS!

Scan all available networks

Wifi.scan(function(results) {
    print(JSON.stringify(results));
});

Configure Access Point (Hotpots)

By default when flashing the firmware after ESP8266 WiFi configured as a AP mode in the WiFI AP SSID name of Mongoose_?????  here ????  is the chip id and password is Mongoose .

FAQ

  • How to Set ESP8266 to AP mode?
  • How to Set ESP8266 as Hotpots?

Steps to follow

  • Go to the Device files tab in a web browser using the mos tool. (IP address http://127.0.0.1:1992/#files )
  • Change the ap credential or set the credential in the conf0.json  file. (Refer Below Image)

Code Example

  • Enable AP Mode : “enable”: true, .
  • Disable AP Mode : “enable”: false, .
  • You can hide ESP8266 AP mode list using “hidden”: false,  (Not shown WiFi available list).
const wifiConfig = {
  wifi: {
    ap: {
      enable: true,
      ssid: "ArunEworld",
      pass: "info@aruneworld.com",
      hidden: false,
      channel: 6,
      max_connections: 10,
      ip: "192.168.4.1",
      netmask: "255.255.255.0",
      gw: "192.168.4.1",
      dhcp_start: "192.168.4.2",
      dhcp_end: "192.168.4.100",
      trigger_on_gpio: -1,
      disable_after: 0,
      hostname: "",
      keep_enabled: true
    }
  }
};

ESP8266 connects to WiFi Router

Here’s an example code snippet to connect an ESP8266 to a WiFi router using Mongoose OS:

load('api_config.js');     // Load the Mongoose OS configuration API
load('api_net.js');        // Load the Mongoose OS network API

// Configure WiFi settings
let ssid = 'YourWiFiSSID'; // Replace 'YourWiFiSSID' with your WiFi network SSID
let password = 'YourWiFiPassword'; // Replace 'YourWiFiPassword' with your WiFi network password

// Connect to WiFi
Net.connect({
  ssid: ssid,
  pass: password,
  auth: Net.AUTH_WPA2_PSK // Use WPA2 authentication (change if necessary)
});

// Event handler for WiFi connection status change
Net.setStatusEventHandler(function(ev, arg) {
  if (ev === Net.STATUS_DISCONNECTED) {
    print('WiFi disconnected');
  } else if (ev === Net.STATUS_CONNECTING) {
    print('WiFi connecting...');
  } else if (ev === Net.STATUS_CONNECTED) {
    print('WiFi connected');
  }
});

Replace 'YourWiFiSSID' with the SSID of your WiFi network and 'YourWiFiPassword' with the password of your WiFi network. This code will attempt to connect the ESP8266 to the specified WiFi network using the provided credentials. It also includes event handlers to print status messages when the WiFi connection status changes.

WiFi Status Monitor

// Monitor network connectivity.
Net.setStatusEventHandler(function(ev, arg) {
  let evs = "???";
  if (ev === Net.STATUS_DISCONNECTED) {
    evs = "DISCONNECTED";
  } else if (ev === Net.STATUS_CONNECTING) {
    evs = "CONNECTING";
  } else if (ev === Net.STATUS_CONNECTED) {
    evs = "CONNECTED";
  } else if (ev === Net.STATUS_GOT_IP) {
    evs = "GOT_IP";
  }
  print("== Net event:", ev, evs);
}, null);

ESP32 ArduinoCore Interface – Wi-Fi

Scan WiFi

Note : You can use  arduino example code instead of below code because both are same  (File > Example > WiFi> WiFiScan)

/* https://aruneworld.com/embedded/espressif/esp32
 * Tested By  : Arun(20170429)
 * Example Name : AEW_WiFi_Scan.ino
 *  This sketch demonstrates how to scan WiFi networks.
 *  The API is almost the same as with the WiFi Shield library,
 *  the most obvious difference being the different file you need to include:
 */
#include "WiFi.h"

void setup()
{
    Serial.begin(115200);

    // Set WiFi to station mode and disconnect from an AP if it was previously connected
    WiFi.mode(WIFI_STA);
    WiFi.disconnect();
    delay(100);

    Serial.println("Setup done");
}

void loop()
{
    Serial.println("scan start");

    // WiFi.scanNetworks will return the number of networks found
    int n = WiFi.scanNetworks();
    Serial.println("scan done");
    if (n == 0) {
        Serial.println("no networks found");
    } else {
        Serial.print(n);
        Serial.println(" networks found");
        for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
            // Print SSID and RSSI for each network found
            Serial.print(i + 1);
            Serial.print(": ");
            Serial.print(WiFi.SSID(i));
            Serial.print(" (");
            Serial.print(WiFi.RSSI(i));
            Serial.print(")");
            Serial.println((WiFi.encryptionType(i) == WIFI_AUTH_OPEN)?" ":"*");
            delay(10);
        }
    }
    Serial.println("");

    // Wait a bit before scanning again
    delay(5000);
}

Serial Terminal Output

ESP32 ArduinoCore Project – WiFi Web Server LED Blink

This article is a continuation of the series on the ESP32 ArduinoCore Project using the ESP32 Dev board and carries the discussion on WiFi Web Server LED Blink. This series aims to provide easy and practical examples that anyone can understand. In our previous tutorial, we saw how to use the inbuilt code to toggle the onboard LED. This is the ESP32 LED Blinky in Wifi Webserver In this tutorial

A simple web server that lets you blink an LED via the web.

Wifi Web Server Info

  • This code will print the IP address of your WiFi Module (ESP32) (once connected) to the Serial monitor.
  • From that IP Address, you can open that address in a web browser to turn on and off the LED on pin-5.
  • If the IP address of your ESP32 is 192.168.1.143:
    • http://192.168.1.143/H turns the LED on
    • http://192.168.1.143/L turns it off
  • This example is written for a network using WPA encryption.
  • For WEP or WPA, change the Wifi.begin() call accordingly.
