Improving WEMOS D1 Mini WiFi tip
I thought this might be useful to others here. I was noticing that one of the Wemos D1 mini I have running had a fairly weak WiFi signal (-87dB) compared to another almost next to it which was about -76dB. I thought this is major difference given how close they were in distance to the Access Point (...
