Hotspot
===== Wifi Hotspot =====
===== Wifi Hotspot =====
To make the task easy , we have used a project [https://github.com/quangthanh010290/RPI3_HOTSPOTS] already available on github to setup hotspot and bridging ethernet on rpi.The wifi now works perfectly for the first run but stops throwing an IP after a reboot , its a known issue dhcpcd and hostapd . To overcome this all we need to do is restart services , so we have added a command to rc.local to restart all the required services at boot. A more deatiled explanation is as follows , we now clones the project in to /home/pi/RPI3_HOTSPOT . After the boot , a script finds the ethernet device name of the pi and replace every occurence of eth0 in the cloned project with that device name to make sure that brdiging is done correctly. At the end , script runs the ap command and we have hotspot up and working.
===== Building and Flashing the RPi Image =====
'''It is advisable to build image on Debian or any Debian based distribution to avoid dependency issues.'''
You can build the image using the scirpt. Please follow the instructions here https://github.com/amanharitsh123/sugarizer-school-box.
