[chbot] ESP8266 local network

[Mark Beckett]

This is a series of (rather long) videos on reconfiguring the ESP8266 
modules.

The SONOFF and SLAMPHER that were referenced last week utilise these 
inside, but are configured to use the ITEAD cloud based server.

Peter Scargill has done all the ground work around ESP8266, and then 
moved  into the SONOFF and SLAMPHER.

There are a bunch of videos that are a bit long winded showing how to do 
the reprogramming and in particular shifting the 0 ohm resistor on the 
Slampher.

There was a conversion on the ITEAD forum and Sonoff with some 
alternative code that handles DNS (aparently)
