Built-in TCP/IP protocol stack, and support multiple TCP Client connection
Support rich Socket the AT command
The ESP8266 WiFi Shield is a ultra-low power UART-WiFi module. It has excellent dimensions and ULP technology compared to other similar modules. The module is special designed for mobile devices and Internet of Things (IoT).
This WiFi Shield based on ESP-12F, which is the new version of the ESP-12 with the Wifi chip ESP8266. With this Shield, you can make you Arduino easy to connect to network and control you device anywhere. Just communication via UART interface and control by AT command.
Works great using with MEGA2560 as a DCC++ Base Station for controlling model railroad locomotive

Not compatible with Arduino Mega
Please note that this shield is not directly compatible with Arduino Mega. You cannot use the `SoftwareSerial` library with the pins on the shield. If you want to use the shield with the Mega, you have to hook up the pin ESP_RX --> TX1 and ESP_TX --> RX1.
Read my previous review on how to hook it up with the Mega.

Instructions plus claires
J'utilise ce shield dans un de mes cours. J'ai rédigé des instructions plus claires pour la configuration de ce module.

PS : Il s'agit d'un "work in progress".

Exactement ce dont j'avais besoin
C'est exactement ce que je cherchais à un bon prix aussi

Just doesn't work
I've followed the examples included here (which are not the clearest instructions) and spent hours searching for alternative solutions. Every time I get errors like the wifi module not being present, or ESP not responding. Very frustrating to waste time on this. Comment RobotShop: Thank you for your review, Corey. We have forwarded your comment to the Makerfabs team who have sent you an email.
