Simple Web Server WiFi

In this example, a simple web server lets you blink an LED via the web. This example will print the IP address of your WiFi module (once connected) to the Arduino Software (IDE) serial monitor. Once you know the IP address of our board, you can open that address in a web browser to turn on and off the LED on pin 9.

If the IP address of your shield is yourAddress:
http://yourAddress/H turns the LED on
http://yourAddress/L turns it off

This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For WEP or WPA, change the Wifi.begin() call accordingly.

Hardware Required

Circuit

Connect an LED with a resistor between PIN 9 and ground of your board.

Arduino MKR WiFi 1010
Arduino MKR VIDOR 4000
Arduino UNO WiFi Rev.2


Please note: these three boards use dedicated pins to communicate and select the WiFi module, therefore you have no restriction in the usage of the available digital pins connected to the header pins.

Code

You should have access to a 802.11b/g wireless network that connects to the internet for this example. You will need to change the network settings in the sketch to correspond to your particular networks SSID.

For networks using WPA/WPA2 Personal encryption, you need the SSID and password. The shield will not connect to networks using WPA2 Enterprise encryption.

WEP network passwords are hexadecimal strings known as keys. A WEP network can have 4 different keys; each key is assigned a "Key Index" value. For WEP encrypted networks, you need the SSID, the key, and key number.

  WiFi Web Server LED Blink

 A simple web server that lets you blink an LED via the web.
 This sketch will print the IP address of your WiFi module (once connected)
 to the Serial monitor. From there, you can open that address in a web browser
 to turn on and off the LED on pin 9.

 If the IP address of your board is yourAddress:
 http://yourAddress/H turns the LED on
 http://yourAddress/L turns it off

 This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For
 WEP or WPA, change the Wifi.begin() call accordingly.
