Two OLED panels plot Mbps in real time as you walk the boards apart, turning a lab bench into a visible propagation-loss experiment. For final-year ECE\/EEE students, network-engineering minors, and IoT performance teams, the build replaces guesswork with numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll assemble two identical measurement nodes, each housing an ESP board, an OLED display, and stable 5V regulation. One node becomes the reference WiFi 4 endpoint; the other carries the WiFi 6 radio. When both are flashed with our benchmark firmware and placed at the same location, you can move the receiver progressively farther away and watch the Mbps trend lines diverge on the twin OLEDs. At the end you have a calibrated, repeatable testbed that produces publishable throughput-vs-distance data-ideal for a capstone report, a conference demo, or a Smart India Hackathon prototype validation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Learn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfigure ESP32 and ESP32-C6 station-AP links and extract PHY-rate statistics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImplement a packet-burst throughput test loop that drives both radios simultaneously\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrive 0.96-in I�C OLEDs to plot real-time Mbps curves using the SSD1306 library\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnalyze throughput degradation over distance, isolating WiFi 6 OFDMA and TWT advantages in a controlled setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eESP32-C6 Dev Board\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eESP32 Dev Board\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.96in OLED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.7k?
