Connection of Rasp with local Wifi instead of Ethernet cable #84

Closed Boreas83 closed 3 years ago

Boreas83 commented 3 years ago

Hi there For testing I would like to connect the Rasp to my local Wifi and the ESP8266 too. I would like to make the whole system mobile in the future and access everything with my smartphone.

I tried to change the arduino sketch but not get it. How to?

Regards Boreas

Hi,

do you want to use the local network at home or with an own wifi network (Access Point/Hotspot)? What is the issue? Can you describe the problem?

Have a nice day! TobKra

Hello, I have a similar question, but without the ESP8266 part. Maybe it is easier to answer them both, otherwise I can make a separate Issue for it.

I want to use this system in a place where I can't put down an Ethernet cable to connect it wired to my home network. Instead, I would connect my Raspberry Pi to my home network wireless. And control (to start off) one led strip:

Is this possible? I want eventually to go to a situation where I can control multiple LED strips directly from the raspberry pi by changing in the settings the pin layout for each separate LED strip.

In short: When the raspberry pi 4 isn't connected by ether, am I able to connect to my WIFI, so I reach the web interface on my phone to control the LED strips.

Hi,

Yes, the 1. will work.

In theory, the output library of the LEDs on the raspberry pi supports 2 stripes: https://github.com/jgarff/rpi_ws281x But I did not test it. So in theory, yes.

Have a great day! TobKra
