- Configure WiFi or Ethernet connectivity in the terminal or through the web browser.
- Test connectivity by creating a simple project that sends data to and from the module.
Example code
void setup() {
Bridge.begin();
}
void loop() {
Bridge.send("Hello World!");
delay(1000);
}
Mini project
Create a remote monitoring system that sends temperature and humidity data via WiFi using a DHT11 sensor and the Iduino Yun Shield WiFi Ethernet module.
Common mistakes
- Do not configure WiFi or Ethernet connectivity without first uploading the ‘Bridge’ sketch.
- Do not properly verify the USB connection between the module and the Arduino board.
- Do not correctly configure the IP address of the module.
- Use an outdated Arduino IDE.
