4 years ago Hi Fabio,
The hostapd addon does not provide any dhcp functionality. You have some options to got from here. 1.) You could set a static IP in each of your connecting clients this should match the address of your access point e.g. 192.168.99.2-255 in case of the sample configuration. 2.) You can use the Core-Addon Simple-DHCP found in the AddonStore or on github https://github.com/home-assistant/hassio-addons/tree/master/dhcp_server the minimal configuration for DHCP-Server could look like this to match sample config of hostapd: { "domain": "mynetwork.local", "dns": ["8.8.8.8", "8.8.4.4"], # not needed because not routing to internet exists "default_lease": 86400, "max_lease": 172800, "networks": [ { "subnet": "192.168.99.0", "netmask": "255.255.255.0", "range_start": "192.168.99.100", "range_end": "192.168.99.200", "broadcast": "192.168.99.254", "gateway": "192.168.99.1", "interface": "wlan0" } ], "hosts": [] }
Best, MahrWe
Hi, I followed your instructions, but my devices can not get the ip address.
I disable other DHCP add-ons, but with no luck.
My hassio is has an address like 192.168.1.x, maybe should I change the 'address' value in your configuration from "address": "192.168.99.1" to something different?
Just let you know that this add-on has great opportunities: if it works could be very interesting!! Thanks in advance, Fabio
