Having problems with flashing the ESP8266’s. I just started building a BrewPi from a Raspberry Pi 3 and using some ESP8266’s that I purchased of Amazon.ca. Had everything pretty much working then went to do a few more adjustments and messed it all up. So figured I’d just redo and start from scratch again. Reinstalled Raspbian, BrewPi and reflashed the ESP8266’s. Now when I try to connect to the ESP8266’s I cannot see the SSID when looking for wireless networks. I have 3 separate ESP8266’s. One never showed it’s SSID the other 2 did after the first flash but after a second flash, nothing. Anyone else ever run into this? These are the ESP8266’s that I purchased.
Flashing using the command line appears to be successful.
