How to Know the NodeMCU IP Address for Your Next IoT Project

  NodeMCU IP Address: The NodeMCU is a popular development board for IoT projects. It’s small, affordable, and comes with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, making it the perfect choice for creating connected devices. But before you can start building your NodeMCU projects, you need to know the IP address of your device. This IP address is essential for communicating with the NodeMCU from another device, such as a computer or smartphone. In this article, we’ll show you how to find the NodeMCU IP address, so you can get started with your next IoT project. Method 1: To Know the NodeMCU IP Address One of the easiest ways to find the NodeMCU IP address is by using the serial monitor in the Arduino IDE. First, connect your NodeMCU board to your computer using a micro-USB cable. Then, upload the following code to the NodeMCU: #include <ESP8266WiFi.h> void setup() { Serial.begin(115200); Serial.println(); Serial.print("Connecting to "); Serial.println(...
