I have an arduino uno r3 and the ESP8266 ESP-12e.

I want to send 2 numbers from my arduino to my laptop located a few miles away .

Can you please tell me how to do this ?

 

The ESP8266 probably not mile connection reliable.

One non-trivial solution requires a bit of programming and that both devices have internet access. If you have the skills, this is another possibility. I’ve done this successfully to remotely control animatronics.

Since it appears that this is a one-way communications, I’d sign up for a dynamic DNS service to get a fixed name for your laptop.

Then, I’d pick a port and configure any firewalls to allow that port to be connected to.

Your remote processor needs socket code to connect remotely. Similarly, you need code on your laptop to receive the connection.

Then, it’s a matter of calling a send routine to the laptop

My remote device used Putty to send data to a laptop. A FreeBASIC program was written to receive the data and subsequently control the animatronic.

 

You may have more success using LoRa instead of WiFi.
