Webserver problem. #19

Hiya. I just figured it out to setup the WiSpy. I have an issue regarding the webserver I am trying to connect to. I have my N64 controller hooked up to arduino uno and all. If the message says "waiting for connection", is there a way to get it to work somehow? The instructions in readme are not clear enough to understand well. Thank you. - SmithJrBlaquaLuigi

Are you using the hardware as noted in the readme? This will not work with a normal NintendoSpy. If you have the esp8266 connected to your wifi and it still is not connecting you may need to install bonjour, This also fails to work properly in firefox due to firefox not supporting mDNS sufficently.

If you are trying to use this with a OG nintendospy, the supplied python code MAY work for you. It was in a functional, but cumbersome state when I last left it, but it has not been tested recently due to working on the wifi side of things more. If you launch the python application there is an option to start a webserver (which you may have figured out how todo already) and start a serial server with the selected port for the nintendospy, Once you click start serial forwarder it should start to work it it does not please post back!
