ESPEasy from everywhere ?

---

Hi everyone, i just discovered ESPEasy and Wemos D1 mini, such wonderful !
I love the simplicity and the interface.

The loneny thing i really miss is a way to send commands to the Wemos from the web (everywhere).
How could i do this please ? I tried the port forwarding to the wemos ip but didin’t worked.

Thanks in advance !

One possibility of doing this is to setup a reverse proxy, that is a https/http proxy on the sever side. Assuming you network is a home-based there a couple if things you need to expose a service to the internet. Here are some starting points:

@mwittig Thanks for your answer. The second link you posted is what i tried, to forward the port 80 on my local ESP ip (192.168.0.65)

But no way to acces it by browsing my real ip like realip:80

I didn’t find a way to change the port inside ESPEasy.

Hi, It should be changed in the source code. And then compile them. I did not test

@wutu Thanks ! I will give it a try
