Handle connecting to the odroid through custom routes instead of IP addresses. #57

Open HALtheWise opened 7 years ago

Basic idea is to setup both your computer and the odroid to know each other by hostname, even when on OLIN-ROBOTICS. This should make ROS happier, and everyone's lives better.

Requires making a shell script or something.

Can find my IP address with something like ip route get 8.8.8.8 | head -1 | cut -d' ' -f8

Can add a network route via putting a line in /etc/hosts
