Can not Connect from Pi 4 to Hero 8 #142

Open Ogoku opened 4 years ago

Ogoku commented 4 years ago

Hi there.

I have a PI 4 wit Raspberry PI OS Desktop installed. When I try to connect to my Hero 8, it is not listed in the accessible WiFi Networks. PI and Hero 8 are set to 2.4GHz.

It looks very simple in the example Videos to connect, but the connection window looks very different to what I have at my Pi.

If you can see the wifi connection in your phone or any other device. You could edit 

sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

and put SSID and password in the following format. 

network={
    ssid="wifi_name"
    psk="wifi_password"
    key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

See editing network requirements on Rpi.

If you cant see the option for wifi in your phone / other device. Open up your goPro.
Go in wireless settings / prefrences and click gopro app, that should turn on your goPros wifi for it to be discoverable.

Hope that helps.
