        You could try the hardware serial? Or pull the reset pin low and then talk to the ESP directly through USB. Might check if those work.aaa– aaa2016-05-13 11:52:48 +00:00Commented May 13, 2016 at 11:52

        @Paul: the nano has only one set of hardware serial ports. So if I use those I cannot send data to the Arduino Serial Monitor anymore, making it hard to understand what is happening... Guess I'll need to go for firmware upgrade.mvermand– mvermand2016-05-13 12:50:53 +00:00Commented May 13, 2016 at 12:50

        well you could make use of the software serialport for debugging? You'll need a "usb-serial/ttl" cable though.aaa– aaa2016-05-13 12:58:12 +00:00Commented May 13, 2016 at 12:58

        1Seems that setting the baud rate with AT+IPR=9600 also bricks an ESP01. I tried several suggestions in this thread to recover it. The solution in the link Marco Andre Silva supplied worked for me.Steffe– Steffe2017-05-13 13:56:25 +00:00Commented May 13, 2017 at 13:56

        How to Format
    
    - 
                create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~
                ```
like so
``` - 
                add language identifier to highlight code
                ```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
 - for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
 - _italic_ or **bold**
 - indent code by 4 spaces
 - backtick escapes 
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
 - to make links (use https whenever possible)
                <https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
 
            How to Tag
        
        A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
 - use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
 - favor using existing popular tags
 - read the descriptions that appear below the tag
 
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. arduino-uno), up to a maximum of 35 characters
 - creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
