Change the default IP #148

Dear Mr. Steele,

I see I did not explain correctly. When two or more hotspots with the same IP are operating near each other, it is not possible to select one over the other. , I need, please, the means to change the SSID, which I can do /etc/comitup.conf but also change the IP to something other than 10.41.0.1 For example I'd like to create 10.41.0.60 with an SSID of Camera-60. Then I can access that camera at 10.41.0.60:81 At the same time, another hotspot would be at 10.41.0.50 with an SSID of Camera-50. We could access that camera at 10.41.0.50:81

Thank you.

Dave

So you expect to connect to more than one ssid/camera at a time? Using multiple WiFi adapters? Otherwise, your only concern is with ssid collisions. If you only connect to one ssid at a time, who cares if the IP addresses overlap? Camera 60 is accessed at 10.41.0.1 port 81 when connected to the Camera-60 hotspot.

To answer your question, though, That IP address is hard coded in the comitup and comitup-web source, and a pair of configuration files.

Yes, I want to use several AP at one time. I see from file searches that it would require using ghex and such to edit multiple files. So, I'll try a different system. Nonetheless, thank you for a wonderful piece of software, and for your quick replies. Be safe.

Can you describe this piece of gear the naturalists are using to connect to multiple hotspots at the same time?
