[Was live] Get my router connection data using an ESP8266
Video starts at 5:05
The objective was to build a device that displayed the routers connection details on my desk (which we got working in this stream).
Originally the plan was to scrape the routers we page, but the page was dynamically loaded in JavaScript so that wouldn't work, I ended up using a background request I saw the page was making to update the page.
I'll be using an Wemos D1 Mini and a OLED screen

Oled Screen*: http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/EqByrzb
Index of steps:
1) Investigation of how to get the data (just using chrome)
2) Getting the screen working
3) Making the post request to the router
4) Parsing the data and display it on screen
