PIC && WiFi suggestions

[dhouston]

Thanks so much, Dave, for this info. I checked out the MiniSocket from ConnectOne and have a couple of questions:

1. It was added to the PicBasic Forum - Communications section a few days ago. Here's a direct link to mackrackit's code.

2. It probably came from conflating the values you cite in a quick scan of the product brief.

3. They are usually quite prompt in response.

4. mackrackit's code cited above will serve as well as anything else. The AT commands are the same although there may be differences in details and configuration.

As I noted recently in another thread I usually use ZBasic for projects that need more than 8 pins. It nearly eliminates development time and can cost as little as $10 for the smallest of their chips. However, I don't believe there's any way to put their chips to sleep in a really low drain mode. You can with a PIC but I believe you need to use the ASM sleep commands to do this. It's been too long for my feeble old brain to recall details and I lost a network HDD that had nearly all of my older projects a few months back.
