FreeFi232 is a WiFi modem that connects to an RS232 level serial port. It is a combination of open source hardware, based around the ESP-12 wifi module, and open source firmware, built on Jussi Salin's ESP8266 virtual modem - https://github.com/jsalin/esp8266_modem.

The firmware provides a Hayes-like command set which can be used to connect terminal software to telnet and http services across a TCP/IP network. It currently supports speeds from 300bps to 115200bps with or without hardware (RTS/CTS) flow control.

The hardware provides for sending and receiving a fairly complete set of RS232 signals over a 25pin d-sub connector:

  • RXD
  • TXD
  • RTS
  • CTS
  • DSR
  • DTR
  • DCD
  • RING
