Following directions step by step receives an ERROR “WiFi shield not present” – Also when using this link next to that part above “https://osoyoo.store/products/esp8266-wifi-shiled-osoyoo-wifi-internet-of-things-learning-kit-for-arduino-uno?variant=31955252215919” you get a 404 Web Page Not Found Error. Why are things sold that don’t work when the directions are followed as they are presented and why can you not keep your site working for links to try to fix the issue? Not a thing here for what to do with regards to it NOT PRESENT, what do I do from here?
The correction is as follows: when the items arrived the two jumpers on the shield were on the other 6 pins not the correct ones. You have to look at it real close because the first image you show has ZERO Jumpers, the second image has jumpers that can been seen as bein g the lower set of 6 not the top set but only if you enlarge the image to see this. The image with the circle on it needs to be set to an angle not straight down and use some better colored jumpers that can be seen. The best thing I have to say though is this. You are the fourth “set” for noobies I have purchased to follow and you with a few minor things have actually worked. The other three Failed miserably due to libraries not found in the version of IDE they have you download, I am using 1.8.10 as shown in the image. Granted some of the benefits of the never 2.3.0 version are missing yours works. I can’t wait to move on and act like a noob to see if the rest of your classes work. I believe the only thing that was going to cause an issue I have fixed and have great expectations for the rest.
