Wifi access point #199

Closed LucasLabarussiat closed 5 years ago

LucasLabarussiat commented 5 years ago

Hello,

I installed your image found here on my Raspberry Model 3B+. At the beginning I know I saw the wifi access point (SSID ubiquityrobotXXXX). At the time I didn't need it, I connected to my wifi network and ran "sudo systemctl disable magni-base" in a terminal.

However, I now have a use for it, so I checked but it seems the SSID doesn't run anymore. I can't see it from my computer. I tried running "sudo systemctl enable magni-base" and it worked, but after a reboot no sign of the wifi access point.

I am really new both to UNIX and Raspberry, so this isn't easy... Could you please tell me how to make this wifi access point available again?

Thank you

Hi @LucasLabarussiat,

The wifi access point is provided by pifi, and will automatically start if there are no wifi networks found at boot.

Enabling and disabling magni-base doesn't change pifi, they only start and stop the ROS services used by Magni. I would recommend keeping it disabled if you are not using a magni.

Thanks for your question, and have fun with our image. Feel free to open more issues, or use our https://forum.ubiquityrobotics.com/ if you have further questions.

Hello Rohan,

Thank you for your very quick answer. So I just deleted the additional wifi networks I saved, and it is working fine. I feel quite stupid for not thinking about it myself haha.

Thank you so much,

Lucas LABARUSSIAT
