I've been interested in RPis for a while, but I travel a bit and it's a huge hassle to onboard to a new wifi network. This is great, does it work for other RPis besides Zero?
What I would love is to do the RPi wifi configuration wirelessly, perhaps through bluetooth on my phone.

- colinramsay 7y agoYou may be interested in http://www.berrylan.org/ http://www.berrylan.org/ - I only found it today so haven't tested it but it does seem to be an interesting solution to the wifi problem you have stated.
- imglorp 7y agoAre the OSs compatible between Zero and 3/4 Pi's? Maybe you could set up everything needed on a headed Pi and then pull its SD and slap it into the Zero, no funny phone apps.
- kingosticks 7y agoIf you just need a way to define the wireless network ssid and password then drop a wpa_supplicant file in the boot partition. As described at https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/headless.md https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wire... If you need a static ip or something else more complicated then this will fall short.
