routermonitor

Introduction

This mini TV project utilizes the ESP8266 module combined with a 1.54-inch SPI LCD screen to display data metrics. The data is sourced from NetData on a router, showcasing details about CPU, memory, and network usage in real-time.

This project is originally forked from the routermonitor project.

Features

  • Compact Design: Perfect for desktop setups.
  • Real-time Data Monitoring: Instantly displays router metrics including CPU, memory, and network.
  • Wireless: Leverages the WiFi capabilities of the ESP8266.

Prerequisites

  • Hardware:
    • ESP8266 Module
    • SPI LCD screen
  • Software:
    • NetData installed on the router
    • PlatformIO (for ESP8266 programming)

Setup & Installation

  1. Hardware Setup: Connect the ESP8266 to the 1.54" SPI LCD as per the schematics provided.
  2. Software Installation:
    • Flash the ESP8266 with the provided firmware using the VSCode IDE.
    • Ensure NetData is correctly set up and running on your router.

Usage

  1. Power on the mini TV.
