I've been working on an application where I need to make one ESP32 as server and it must connect to 2 clients. One of those clients is my mobile phone and another client is my ESP32. So, my goal is to send the data strings from mobile phone to client ESP32 via the server. How can I do this?? Please help me out.
I've used the following codes in order to make automatic connection between ESP32 server and the client.
Code: Select all
// Server side code
/*
A connect hander associated with the server starts a background task that performs notification
every couple of seconds.
*/

// bluetooth stack will go into congestion, if too many packets are sent, in 6 hours test i was able to go as low as 3ms
}
else
{
digitalWrite(LED13, LOW); // Else, the sigal must be below "550", so "turn-off" this LED.
}
delay(10);
