QUESTION
I'm really having trouble connecting to my ESP8266. I was working with this setup for long time now and I didn't have to flash my boards. Now after having to use a different wifi i needed to flash the board. After doing the following
- Updating to the newest ConfigurableFirmata
- Using FirmataBuilder to download fitting firmata
- Uploading the Firmata to the ESP8266
I can't connect via Johnny-Five anymore (getting the usual timeout error). I couldn't narrow down what it exaclty is (and I have been trying all day) but these are things that I have noticed (Using ConfigurableFirmata directly as well as using firmatabuilder and StandardWifiFirmata, all with the same behaviour)
- an open Hotspot gets created even though I'm in Client Mode
- when scanning for ports I do find the Module connected to my Wifi (Serial Monitor in Debug tells me the same too) but no open port is found, even though it's specified in the firmata.
I just can't narrow down the reason. I hope you guys can.

this was a simple user mistake. But since I lost a whole day searching for the error and I think others might too, I'll share my mistake here.
As I pointed out I created the Firmata as Client (thinking its a client to my Hotspot). But you will have to create it as a server (as you want to connect to the board)
It's as simple as that. If you are on http://firmatabuilder.com/ make sure you choose TCP Server if you want to connect to your board.

Install ConfigurableFirmata
If you are using Arduino IDE version 1.6.4 or higher go to Sketch > Include Library > Manage Libraries and then search for "ConfigurableFirmata" and click on Install after tapping on the ConfigurableFirmata item in the filtered results. You can also use this same method to update ConfigurableFirmata in the future.
If you are using an older version of the Arduino IDE, download or clone ConfigurableFirmata to your Arduino sketchbook library folder. This is typically /Documents/Arduino/libraries/ on Mac or Linux or \My Documents\Arduino\libraries\ on Windows.
If you want to edit things yourself or help in development, clone this repo to \My Documents\Arduino\libraries\ConfigurableFirmata and start hacking. Just delete the folder if it exists already.
