Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
While testing pCP7, I discovered there is a problem with the pi3B+ network adapter. It does not properly detect the carrier, and also will not come back up if you issue an ifconfig eth0 down command. One would think that it would not matter for AP mode, but since I'm really configuring pCP as a router, this is hanging things up on the 3B+ There has been no fix for this since the board was released.. going back to at least 4.4.y kernels. There are a few open issues on Github, I just pinged one of them to get their attention again. There is a very complicated work around, just hoping I can get RPi to fix it properly. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

I wanted just to give an update how I finally managed to switch from AP mode to normal WiFi without using Ethernet: With the AP still working, I ssh'd into the pCP, and used the setup commandline tool to change WiFi settings. At the same time, I also edited wpa_supplicant on the boot partition, not sure if that one was needed (just wanted to make everything sure). Then - important step - I switched off AP mode in the web interface (if you don't, your new WiFi settings will be ignored at the next boot). I don't remember whether I lose contact immediately and had to hard-reboot by disconnecting power. Anyway, after the reboot, the Pi without a problem connected to the new (external) Wifi network. For the other way round (setting up AP mode while connected to a WiFi network), I don't know whether there is also a way. I decided to keep the external router (even without internet connection) because it is way easier for maintenance. If I want to update, I can easily replace the external router by my mobile phone in hotspot mode with the same SSID/password settings. Thus, I can temporarily connect the system to the internet and do updates. schup011's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66557 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Sorry to use this thread for my question, but I think it fits to the discussion here: I have a standalone Picoreplayer system with RasPi Zero W, set up as wireless access point. It has a HDD connected and 7 inch touch display with Jivelite. Everything is running fine, but connections and SD card of the system are not really accessible :-(. Nevertheless, as there have been some LMS updates since then and I would like to use the new versions, I would like to access the internet once to do all the updates via the 4G connection of my smartphone (smartphone set as AP), and then switch back to access point mode. So I wondered whether there is a headless way to switch from AP mode to "normal" Wifi mode and back to AP mode. Any hints? Using ssh would not be a problem, just the missing Ethernet connection is a problem. Or would it be possible to set it up such that it searches for the Wifi network to access during boot, and if that is not found, it sets up itself as its own wireless access point? schup011's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66557 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
I tried to remove pcp-apmode.tcz acording to instructions. Then I found that I had to connect to a WiFi-net to remove the error "/usr/local/etc/pcp/wpa_supplicant.conf not found" on the WiFi tab. This creates the file. Probably irrelevant in this case but now there are no errors here. Should I now disconnect the WiFi-connection again before reloading the pcp-apmode.tcz extension? I didn't... After a reboot I loaded the pcp-apmode.tcz extension again...Same problem like still no pcP SSID. I found no loaded pcp-apmode.tcz on the Extensions page which makes sense since there are no line about this in the /opt/bootlocal.sh file. The /usr/local/etc/pcp/hostapd.conf and /usr/local/etc/pcp/dnsmasq.conf have been created though. Seems the installation script does not inject the line in the /opt/bootlocal.sh for some reason.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
The integrated version will make it easier to adjust the SSID and password. This is a WPA2 encryption, so I wouldn't worry about the SSID being "inviting" Setting the addresses like you did is the best way to do it, there is some startup timing that confuses the auto detection.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Greg, In my case rather than having 2 tabs, I had zero player tabs in pCP. The only tab showing was LMS. Looking at the LMS web interface info page I was able to determine that the LMS web interface was interacting with the wireless mac address. From the LMS interface I could start and stop the player that was outputting to my DAC. Eventually I figured out from the TFT/jivelite that there were two identically named players. The key was on the diagnostics pages. On the Diagnostics->Raspberry Pi tab/page, I came across "Controls MAC" and it was set to the wired mac address. Based on that I tried manually setting the squeezelite mac address to that address. Hence the next Eureka! moment. After setting the mac address I then had 2 player tabs in pCP. More importantly, I could set my autostart properties so the player would start playing pretty quickly after power up. Took the new experimental setup for a ride in the car last night. pCP in the car - woo hoo! rmac321's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58482 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
hi rmac321, >From my experience, I believe squeezelite will use wired Ethernet if it is given the choice of wired or wifi. So the pCP web interface also does the same thing, ie given a choice of wired or wifi it will use the wired IP address. Although you can access the web interface via either IP address. LMS seems to use the appropriate MAC address to create a player instance. So if you have a wired and a wifi connection you could have 2 tabs exist in pCP with the same squeezelite player name. LMS handles this situation and will clean out the unused one after a while. Now when you add apmode to the equation, I am not sure what will happen. Seems like it adds another level of complication that we don't specifically handle. Another complication is if you have 2 wifi connections. squeezelite will pick the one that sees LMS first. This can change from reboot to reboot. regards Greg Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Paul, Thanks so much for making this available!! For anyone who has it almost working, but seems like there is a disconnect between squeezelite and LMS, it could be that pCP is using the wired mac address while your squeezelite instance is on the wireless mac address. I manually set the squeezelite mac address to my wired mac address and now they are in sync. (Greg - see I remembered about the diagnostics pages for a change.) Thanks again Paul!!

Yes I was thinking of L3 bridging with the AP; either with eth0 or a USB adapter (or VLAN but I don't think that option would be too popular).

I'm looking into this, progress isn't fast :) I want to have bridging as an option. After looking at the boot process and the various bits activating dhcp, static, wifi, I'm thinking what is needed first is a stable naming scheme for the interfaces. The current PCP uses udev v.174, so something like "70-persistent-net.rules" should be working. My rule is in a "netdevs.tcz" that is listed at the very end of onboot.lst. It doesn't work; I've tried naming the file to "10-persistent-net.rules" but that doesn't help. When the boot process ends, if I shut all interfaces down, reload rules and trigger them, this time I get my interfaces renamed. With TCL/PCP as it is, do I stand a chance of getting a custom rule taken into account at boot, or shall I wait for "normal" boot to end, nuke all networking and rename/restart it? (this option would work, obviously, but I find it messy.) 3 SB 3 Libratone Loop, Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) LMS 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Seems this has become a hot topic again, let me make it a bit simpler to install. I should be able to do it this weekend. paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Hi guys, Just in case somebody might be looking for a solution without SSH sessions, we created a plugin that install the AP with one click. We have successfully tested it with the RPi3 and RPi2 with Edimax and Logilink WiFi dongles.

And of those that do they are not all that reliable..

It can be done, the setup and configuration has to be done via ssh session. I've sent instructions to some via pm. The biggest problem is that not all wifi chips support it.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
I've been thinking about that too, I have the iphone but not the car :) I've found 'this thread' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?107995-picoreplayer-without-network/page4) about ad-hoc mode which is not too old and might be useful. Other than that, I haven't found a true AP recipe. I think I'll boot a pCP 3.20.2 and see how it rolls. I understand your use-case is the same as the linked thread, the Pi as an island, i.e. no network access at all. Of course to set it up etc network is needed so that will be something of a routed setup. A bridge would be neater though. I'll see what I can come up with. 3 SB 3 Libratone Loop, Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) LMS 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
