WIFI Problems
#1
Hi

I am trying to build a HEADLESS RPI5 with Openplotter/

I have installed the downloaded Image and it fires up great, and can connect to it via the Openplotter WIFI SSID

However, if I then add a WIFI USB adapter to connect to the internet, that works too and I connect to my default WIFI at home called DEFAULT
I can then download updates and e=ven connect to it using RVNC over the DEFAULT wifi.

Problem is, if I reboot, the DEFAULT wifi takes over, it is the only connection to the RPI and the Openplotter SSID has gone.

If I remove the USB wifi and reboot, the Openplotter Wifi is back.

Cant I have both?  (I want the hotspot to remain the OPENPLOTTER, but also connect to it via VNC thru DEFAULT)

What am I doing wrong?

Haven't checked this works but is the connect automatically box enabled in the hotspot settings?

I tried to set the Auto Connect and the Priority so that the OPENPLOTTER SSID has PLUS 5 and the local SSID DEFAULT has Minus 5. Both on Auto connect. Still no difference.
