ESP32S3. - Should this hardware work

[candrews67]

I bought an ESP32-S3 for this but I have not been able to make it work.

The README.md has instructions for esp32 and esp32c but there is also a esp32s3 directory under build. I have attempted to install the esp32s3 binaries using the provided esptool examples for esp32 and esp32c3 but they do not work.

Do I need to compile for esp32s3 or will this chip not work?

Thanks!!!

Hey there, I just tested ESP-S3 and flashed with no issues. However, I did build from scratch before flashing. These steps worked for me:
cd to esp32_nat_router folder
Delete the build folder
get_idf or run the export.sh as recommended in the ESP-IDF install -->#e.g. for me on MAC. $HOME/esp/esp-idf/export.sh
cmf: idf.py set-target esp32s3
In the cmd:"idf.py menuconfig", make sure all the necessary settings are enabled as stated in https://github.com/martin-ger/esp32_nat_router#building-the-binaries
cmd: idf.py build
cmd: idf.py -p PORT flash #e.g. for me: idf.py -p /dev/cu.usbmodem01 flash

@sliacanm Thanks, it worked.
Since creating the build is really time-consuming, I’m sharing my finished build esp32s3.zip.
