    Hello Delali,
    great movie, you perfectly explain step by step for this kind of fresh guys like me. I followed your instruction, had a few issues in the meantime, I had to start 5-6 time from the beggining, but finally works!!!
    On my ESP8266 ping is 8ms, download 4,6Mbps, upload 5,5Mbps.
    One remarks - on your movie baud is 1152000 (time in movie 3:45), it doesn't work in my case and I had to set 115200.

    Hello bro
    First of all thank you for giving us such a beautiful and informative video.
    I had some questions about ESP8266 NodeMCU v3. If I want to make a repeater with it. So my question is
    1 / What will be the maximum range of NodeMCU repeater?
    2 / What is the maximum data speed of NodeMCU WiFi?
    3 / NodeMCU repeater maximum number of people can use together?

      1. I haven't extensively tested that but while connected i could move into different rooms with a gap of about 10m.
      2. I had 2.14Mbps download and 0.76Mbps upload speed on testing, i have seen some people who apparently have had up to 5Mbps Upload
      3. I haven't tested the maximum number of people, i just had my fone and laptop connected

    Hey Delali,
    First of all, thanks a lot for this informative video.
    I wanted to know, "Does it work as a repeater mode or access point mode ?"
    I mean, does it have its own DHCP server or IP assignment is handled by the main router?
    My objective is to create Access point and manage devices connected to it from this access point only, not the main router. The main router should show this extender connected to it, not all the devices connected to this extender.
    Thanks again

    • @Delali
      @Delali  2 роки тому +3

      Your welcome buddy.
      It works as repeater but its actually an access point to your actual Wi-Fi router. I believe it has its own DHCP independent of the routers'
      Managing devices solely on the ESP may be tricky as the software/firmware isn't very flexible or have many options available.
      Happy new year buddy.

      It depends on the device you connect to the network or what your are doing.
      I easily played clash of clans while connected to the repeater and I could also watch UA-cam videos even though I had to wait a little for loading.

    • @Delali
      @Delali  3 роки тому

      Thanks for the kind words brother. In some cases, flashing without switching to programmable/flash mode works, as seen in mine. But in most cases it wouldn't. That's what I forgot to mention.
      The buttons on the chip are FLASH and RESET. Flash puts the chip in programable mode and Reset reboots the chip.

      Not sure what the problem could be but try first connecting perhaps your phone or computer to the repeater to be sure it works first before trying your IoT devices.
