I was wondering what it would take to that if there is no connection on the WiFi list that it would turn on itself as a WiFi Hotspot Host connection allowing you to select a WiFi connection like the Pi-Star does when it can’t find a connection in your WiFi list. It would allow you to use this easier in a portable node setup. Or am I missing something?

That is a nice feature of Pi-Star. Know any Pi-Star developers that would like to work on AllStar?
