I do still believe that wireless network bridging can be accomplished somehow, although the final solution will likely require deeper knowledge of the ESP8266 hardware and firmware internals, and possibly some clever hacks. If it is indeed possible for this to work, the students were not able to find such a configuration, and I was unable to provide them with any insights that might lead them to a fruitful solution in the time available. In the end, the students found that it is not trivially possible to use the ESP8266 module to accomplish wireless bridging in dual station/AP mode.
The goal for their project was to investigate the feasibility of attempting to use the ESP8266 wireless module to perform wireless bridging in order to route packets between isolated networks.
This article is a review of a capstone project completed by Anubhab De, Sanjay Kshatriya, Zankrut Hiren Shukla. The rest of this article will be left here unchanged as the newer article builds upon the investigations carried out by the group below.
