Found a lot of videos on that topic, but most are incomplete and do not really help. Your video saved my day!

I just wanna say thank you so much. This has helped me a lot caused i've been wondering why my esp32 hasnt been able to connect to the broker. Turns out, it was cause I didnt edit the config file. Thanks to you, I was able to start focusing on the rest of my project :D <3

Thanks for the video!
Would you like to make a video about Mosquitto SSL configuration?

[arunec]

should i install Mosquitto on my desktop ?

[bassie]

Great tutorial! I got it to work - almost. I can't connect to my broker from other devices, even if they are in the same local network. Do I need to do something extra to make that work?

Love what you do man!
Has helped me immensely setting up industrial use-cases for this.

Idea for next video, reviewing the Siemens LMQTT library versions for bugs/differences. For example how it handles QoS.

I just discovered this channel and you are great! I wanted to know if you could help me configure TwinCAT IoT communicator with TwinCAT3 (it uses the mqtt protocol). Unfortunately there aren't many tutorials out there and the Beckhoff documentation isn't complete. I'm a mechatronic engineering student and I was thinking of doing a term paper on this topic.

[srezaziaee]

Thank you so much for all of your posts, is there any way to make mosquitto broker a remote connection, not a local one?
