Can't Talk to ESP8266 with Putty after initial session after flashing

Post by dmanco1 » Sun Jul 14, 2019 8:01 pm

Good Day to all!
I flashed 3 different boards with the same result. I can interact with MicroPython in the initial session after flashing the chip. after powering down and restarting the board and restarting Putty, The chip sends the MicroPython login and prompt, but no input is echoed or sent to the board. I flashed them with NodeMCU firmware programmer tool as I can't seem to get esptool to work on my system. I think I'm setting up /dev/tty string properly. Does anyone have any suggestions on this problem.
Thank you for your time.

Did you set the flow-control option in Putty to off?
