Connect pypilot to another wifi network -edited
#1
I would like some help connecting my pypilot to another wifi.

I am using this thing to get my depth:

https://store.vexilar.com/sonarphone-w-h...luded.html

It creates a wifi network. I dont know much about it. The network is called T-BOX-595. It has no password. When I connect to it and I open their app I get my depth info in the app. It also sends the depth info to navionics which is nice.

I want to connect my pypilot to the wifi created by the sonarphone.

I have managed to get my pypilot to connect to a generic wifi network by going into configuration, wifi settings and selecting the second option, managed client. On my home network, I just entered my network name and password and I later saw pypilot pop up on my home network and I connected to it over the IP address my network assigned it.

That method is not working with the network made by sonarphone. I entered the SSID as T-BOX-595 and left the key blank. I see that pypilot asks for "“Client Mode Address (leave blank for dhcp)” as well. Should I enter something here?

Using Fing, I can see the IP addresses for all the devices on the T-BOX-595 network. My iPhone and iPad show up but I dont see my pypilot. It looks like it is just not connecting to the network.  It appears to me the sonarphone wifi has a "router" at address 192.168.1.1. When I try to visit that IP using a browser it asks for a  username and password which I dont have.
