Another Wifi Question - apologies in advance - jacrider - 2020-02-09 All: I am working on updating my RasPi onboard computer. I have RasPi 3 that is attached to a nice 10.1" touchscreen. I am using OpenPlotter 1.2 currently. I have several RasPi 4's around, but the screen I have works better with the older version. Also of note, I have plugged in a USB Wifi adapter as some note it provides a stronger signal. I am working at home now, so I have a ethernet connection as well. Here is my question: I can't seem to get my RasPi to create the access point. Using the OpenPlotter Network settings, I have defined these settings: Network Mode: RPi3: AP + client Sharing Internet Device: wlan0 [when I select wlan1, I get an error when I click 'Apply'] Access point: openplotter [I have updated the password] Channel: 6 So I click apply and it tells me to reboot, so I do. After the reboot, I have an Internet connection through Ethernet. However, when I use my phone to try to sign into the AP wifi, it doesn't appear. As another point of information, I have successfully 'logged-in' to the RasPi through VNC, but that's through my home network (192.168.xxx) not wifi. Anyway, I am sure many of you can see where I have gone wrong... Many thanks. |
