Hi Gunar, 

Do you have any links to your work ? 

Since I do also work on the ESP8266 I can only say that being able to
send and receive UDP packets might be a place to start? 

I'm not a RIOT expert - so that's where I stand. 

If RIOT supports Sockets or MQTT that might also be worth looking into. 

Regards
