Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.

That's odd - can you try running
wifi.at.debug()afterrequire("ESP8266WiFi").connect(... it'll turn on debugging output so we can see what is being sent/received?It's a shame about the outdated firmware - I was told by the suppliers that the auto-update works, but after testing it turns out it just bricks the module in that version of the firmware :(
I am planning on coming up with a way of updating it - I'm in the process of fixing some USB issues, and I think once that is done it should be possible turn the Espruino into a simple USB-TTL pass-through with a few lines of code, which would in turn mean you can use the existing firmware update tools to update the ESP8266.
Even now it would be possible to write an updater in JavaScript that would run in the Web IDE, pushing data. It's just that me (or someone else) will have to do it.
