ASL on RPi 3 with WiFi

AllStarLink
1

Does ASL support the RPi 3 WiFi? If so, what do I need to know to set it up. I didn’t find any info on the wiki.

Thanks,

Bob, this is not a matter of ASL supporting it but rather a matter of the underlying operating system. I can’t speak to the .img that is pre-built but I will say that if you use a vanilla version of Raspbian and go from there (following the directions of how to setup the supplicant and all the requisite things) then it should work… https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/wireless-cli.md

Of course not using the supplied image also may come with it’s own challenges too…

ASL supports whatever IP address you obtain, however you obtain it.
WIFI is not part of ASL but the operating system.
Try looking for wifi on a debian 9 Pi.
I ran the OS menu once, but I don't remember what it was and the wifi setup is in there. But you can find it on the web.

From the command line of ASL 1.01 ( repeater@repeater:/ $ ) type sudo wifi-setup the script will create the required files for the system for use. You may also manually edit the file to add additional wifi networks.

Cool, and it works! One question. What is the protocol for multiple WiFi networks? How is the selection made?

Thanks,
Bob

Manually edit the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file. WiFi-setup script created a template for three WiFi networks. Just replace SSID and PASSWORD in the file.

Understand. I’ll ask it differently. Suppose I have 3 WiFi networks entered. How is each selected? I’m assuming it does not connect to three at once.

Thanks,

I believe it goes from the first with a try and then to the next until it connects, so watch the order you put them in...

just think it through your situation to keep connect times shorter.
Common to use #1 as the one you are most likely to connect to most of the time etc...
