ESP8266 can act as both Station / WIFI client (STA_IF interface) and Access Point (AP_IF interface). AP_IF interface is active by default in MycroPython firmware on ESP826 . In the earlier post, we connected to the access point (AP mode) of ESP8266 and used WebREPL to remotely control switch on/off and brightness of an LED. Now, we'll configure the ESP8266 (as WIFI client) so that it connects to the WIFI router automatically after booting.
