Use ESP32 Bridging LR WiFi and Conventional WiFi

Postby NevynSelby » Sun Jun 30, 2024 7:21 am

The scenario I am thinking of is as follows:
  • Several nodes out in the field, all ESP32 configured as stations using long range WiFi.
  • A single server, say a Raspberry Pi collecting data running wired/WiFi on the local network.
  • Single ESP32 acting as a bridge, so configured as an access point (LR mode) to collect data from the LR nodes and also as a station using BG networking.
So the nodes collect the data in the field and then send this over LR to the bridge. The bridge is connected as a station on the local WiFi (BG protocol) and forwards the data to the server.

I cannot work out from documents / examples if this is possible.

I would appreciate any pointers.

Thanks in advance,
Mark
