Lots of troubleshoot skills will be needed if you attempt this with a different board.Īs of the Raspbian Stretch Image (September 2017 image) has some issues with WiFi and the Zero W. Setup will be similar but different for each SBC, and may not work at all - depending on the type of WIFI adapter they have or you are using.
** This may work with other SBC (single board computers) - OrangePi, C.H.I.P., Beaglebone. I've not tried this with a PI2 or ZERO - so if you use one of these having some troubleshooting skills will come in handy. Setup maybe slightly different (different drivers, and different ways to get the wifi to work in the first place). *** A Raspberry PI 2, or Raspberry PI Zero could also be used, with the correct wireless adapter (The adapter needs to support AP mode). A 5v 2A supply is prefered, a good cell phone charger, or the official Raspberry PI power supply. but a small USB hub can be used).Īnd finally you'll need a power supply for your Raspberry PI. You'll need a keyboard and mouse (a wireless one that uses the same dongle is ideal. HDMI cable, micro SD card (I used a 16gb, which is more than I need for this project. We will need a OTG usb cable, a HDMI adapter.
* A Raspberry PI 3 should work with out any changes. You may want to make some changes to my setup, depending on what you change you may need to also make changes to the robot sketches, if you are planning on using the robot. * Also Note: these setup files are what I used to get the robot to work, the instructable will go over what is needed.
* NOTES: At some point I may pull the branches together into the master branch, and may or may not remember to up this instructable. The project setup files can be found here (in the raspberrypi branch) (This isn't full prove, but works good enough for us). We will be setting up a MAC filter, so that only our robot and control systems will be able to connect to the AP. And it can be bridged to the internet (but that is beyond the project goal). The ideas presented here can be used for other web services (IE: web server, FTP server, gopher (yup showing my age here), irc, mail). Original for use with my D1 Mini WIFI Robot. We will be using a private MQTT broker with this project. Instead it will provide a private (intranet) network that can be used for robot control, and sensor processing. The access point or AP (for short) will not need access to the internet. The goal of this project is to create a wireless access point using a Raspberry PI Zero W.
