B4R Question ESP8266-12E serial bridge

[Mostez]

Hello,
I would like to know how to use ESP8266-12E module as an serial bridge for MEGA-2560 data transmission. I want to upload log file to network server and send commands to device, i.e. add or delete user account. unfortunately I could not use WEMOS board because I need more pins to control LCD, Keypad ..etc. i used Ethernet shield before and it worked perfect, now i want to upgrade the device to work with wifi .

Thanks

There is no library available for using ESP as a wifi adapter.

Check ESP32. It is similar to ESP8266 and provides more pins.

Is it possible to work with ESP8266 and MEGA as client, in brief I want to upgrade Ethernet shield based devices to WiFi, kindly guide me where to start.

Thanks

OK, i got your point Erel, that's why I asked if i can work with it like working with Ethernet shield in client mode, not like WiFi adapter.
Thanks
