Feature: WLAN setup without using Mi Home #132

Quick question. I want to update my WLAN settings fast via SD-Card. I have seen there is a wlan config file under /tmp directory. Do I just have to edit that one and is it possible to just edit the a wlan config file on the fat partion and copy that file with every boot onto the device. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction :-)

Okay, i managed to code it by myself. WLAN-Configuration is now fast and easy without Mi Home App and QR-Code bullshit.

I have uploaded all files and a little maunal: https://mega.nz/#!FWoFQJ6a!fGu5laM8eow0uScZM6uerXr7DyuOCoLv-O5r2ikW-AA

Have fun with it :-)

Hi, i bought a new Cam with 34.. MAC. :-( I dont want to use the android app. In fear it updates the firmware and then things wont work. Cam was/is on Firmware 3.0.3.56 So i used "a-zimmer"-files to setup the WLAN.

I connected the Cam to Power, LED was blinking blue, put in SD, waited for the sound and power off. Pulled SD out, power the Cam on, LED was still blinking blue, but i saw in my router that the Cam was connected to my network, so i put the SD back in and waited again for sound. Now i could connect to Cam and apply the hack.

Many Thanks So you could use Cam with 34..MAC, without ever using the app. With the use of "a-zimmer" changes, you could not only update WLAN, you could install the whole hack. :-)

Just a hint for others that might struggle with the wifi connection. Make sure your editor doesn't add a newline after your wifi password and ssid.

echo -n "YOUR_WIFI_PASSWORD" > .wifipasswd
echo -n "YOUR_WIFI_SSID" > .wifissid

Worked like a charm on a couple 34xMAC cams. Thanks @a-zimmerer !

Could you please explain the step by step procedure to setup the wifi and password without the application ? it doesn't work for me.
