Hi SchwarzeWolke, The hashtag is a comment as far as wpa supplicant is concerned. So it is ignored by wpa supplicant. piCorePlayer on the other hand uses the tag to determine it's course of action. Normally, if you go to the [Wifi Settings] web page it reads the wpa_suppplicant.conf and displays the information. If you then press [Save], a new wpa_supplicant.conf is written using pCP standards. We do this because we assume that it is easier for us to create a correctly formatted wpa_supplicant.conf than the user. We also hoped it would make wifi easy to get going and reduce support issues. :confused: Now we realize some users are very well versed in wpa supplicant and require a complicated wpa_supplicant.conf file. So, we allow the user to do what ever they want, and as long as they add #Maintained by user pCP will ignore the file in the web interface, pCP will not modify the file. The advanced users is expected to maintain wpa_supplicant.conf using manual methods. Best of both worlds! :D regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109404 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
