How potential buyers could insert WIFI-parameters
-
Hi @jmarcelino I' m developping an NFC interface with the NTAG I2C from NXP, so you can transfer the necessary informations with your phone.

@jmarcelino Thank you!

Sure I'll get this up ASAP.

@jmarcelino Sounds interesting. Any chance for the code? ;o)

Hi @andy_n,
We've been successful with this flow:
- GPy first boots in "setup mode": WiFi is in WLAN.AP with your product name as SSID
- Setup mode also starts a small micro webserver
- Users connects phone/computer to this setup SSID and opens browser to 192.168.4.1 for example
- Micro webserver scans for nearby WiFi networks and shows webpage with this list for user to select
- Corresponding WiFi password is also requested
- The SSID and Password are recorded and GPy re-initializes into main script using the new stored settings.
Bluetooth is another option but as you say you'd need to write mobile apps to support it. We don't yet have a generic app that works for this.
