Collecting CSI while the raspberry pi is an access point. #26

Closed mamdouhJ closed 2 years ago

mamdouhJ commented 2 years ago

Hello, I installed the library on the raspberry pi and everything seems to work fine. However, I want to configure the raspberry pi to be an access point while collecting CSI. Do I need to buy a wifi adapter or would the built-in chip work in monitor mode and work as an access point at the same time.? Thanks

It is possible to have AP/client mode enabled + CSI collection, but you would need to change the assembly/D11 core and how csi_extractor.c works as well. Best of luck.

Would adding a wifi adapter solve this problem? As for using one adapter in monitor mode and another as an access point ?

mzakharo commented 2 years ago

yes that will do it, you just have to blacklist wlan0 from wpa_supplicant
