I've got this working, it does exactly what i was looking for. It will join my home Wifi when i'm at home, and if my home wifi is unavailable (eg: i'm out somewhere) it'll configure a static IP addres

You can put more than one network stanza in wpa_supplicant.conf

The instructions Julian provided were excellent. Easy to follow and worked the first time. But if I read correctly, the original poster is needing a way to connect wirelessly to the home network, and

I'd be happy to help you troubleshoot Douglas. For this sort of thing whether you have the DRAWs hat or not won't matter, this is simply a rpi/linux networking configuration. Do you have access to you

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.

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 I’ve

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

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 c

That would be a use case for a 44 net VPN.

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 hos

This is probably more of a RaspberryPI question than it is a DRAWs specific question but i think this is likely a pretty common use case amongst DRAWs users. I use my RPi/DRAWs at home and outside (re
