Re: RPi / DRAWs Connectivity in the Field and at Home #draws #field #networking #avahi

Could someone email me and see what i'm doing wrong? I can't seem to get the hotspot to work on my pi, with or without the draws hat. I used the instructions that julian linked to. --

Draws cooling fans #draws #field

It is getting warmer, here in phoenix it is already getting to the mid 80s and will be getting into the 90s next week. Are there any cooling fans that can be used with the draws hat on a pi? Even in

Thanks Julian, I actually went and watched your video on this last night (again) too. I’ll check that link tonight. I’m going to try to take it out away from the house this weekend and make sure

Re: Using a PiDrive with Draws Hat #draws #pidrive

Yikes, i just got mine yesterday. I'm new to raspberry pi but not to Linux so have been getting familiar with the rpi centric configs etc. It's a pretty cool setup. I'm interested in hearing what you

Its very simple to use your raspberry pi to connect to your home network when you're at home, or to act as an access point in the field. Here's the tutorials used. Read all the comments before you

Re: Using a PiDrive with Draws Hat #draws #pidrive

Thanks for the reply. And yes I did enable by removing the # and re-booting. I believe the prdrive drew to many amps and it may have blown or weaked the 5 volt regulator. But when I power it up from

Re: Using a PiDrive with Draws Hat #draws #pidrive

Did you enable audio? Towards the bottom of this page Also - when you say it gave you a smoke signal... that doesn't sound good. Do you know what burned up, or on which board it came from?

Using a PiDrive with Draws Hat #draws #pidrive

I wanted to use my PiDrive as it is already setup as my access point and dhcp server to my ham shack on wheels. I plugged the hat in and hooked up an external 12 volt source. When I powered it up it

Re: RPi / DRAWs Connectivity in the Field and at Home #draws #field #networking #avahi

Raspbian runs Avahi services, which means the computer can be discovered automatically using the Zeroconf system (Bonjour, Avahi, etc.) If your raspberry pi is named DRAWS-CALLSIGN, then you should be

Re: RPi / DRAWs Connectivity in the Field and at Home #draws #field #networking #avahi

I also haven't figured out yet (due to lack of time on the clock) what the best state for the RPi to be in with regard to internet connectivity. Much of my operating will be done somewhere there's a

Re: RPi / DRAWs Connectivity in the Field and at Home #draws #field #networking #avahi

I do the opposite actually. My raspberry pi’s connect to my home network via Ethernet, which I statically map with dhcp and then I set the WiFi on the pi up to be an access point using dnsmasq and
