I have: 2 arduinos UNO, 2 ESP01 transivers. But if that's not enough, I'm ready to buy something else I need to use one of Arduinos as a wifi hot spot, and the second as a modem. They should just be connected to each other :) P.S. This is for my school project! Subsequently, I will put some obstacles between the Arduinos to see how much the signal strength degrades.

    Have you googled for how to use these with an Uno? Have you searched for libraries, that make it easier? Have you tried writing a program for the Uno? Have you searched for tutorials on how to setup an access point and how to connect to an access point? Commented Feb 12, 2023 at 18:35
  • Thank you very much for corrective questions. I'm from Russia, so I wanted to find content that could help me in the most accessible way - in Russian. But, on the Russian-speaking Internet, there are very small amount of people who are really interested in this topic. Most of the tutorials rested on controlling the Arduino with a phone via wifi, but this is not exactly what I needed :) Commented Feb 14, 2023 at 12:59

Here is the ESP8266 WiFi library:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/tree/master/libraries/ESP8266WiFi

In there You'll find an example for a WiFi access point:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/blob/master/libraries/ESP8266WiFi/examples/WiFiAccessPoint/WiFiAccessPoint.ino

And an example for WiFi client:
https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/blob/master/libraries/ESP8266WiFi/examples/WiFiClient/WiFiClient.ino

That should provide enough information for you to build your project.

To get the signal strength without connecting, you can use WiFiScan:

  • Thanks a lot a lot a lot!!! Do you have any information about how to correctly connect modules with arduinos? Commented Feb 14, 2023 at 13:04
