Set lopy wifi ip when as access point

[thibault]

Hi, i search to change the ip adress of the lopy when he act as access point.

I use this code:

def Wifi_Init():
    from network import WLAN
    wlan = WLAN(mode=WLAN.AP, ssid="Own SSID", auth=(WLAN.WPA2, 'Own password'), channel=11, antenna=WLAN.INT_ANT)
    wlan.ifconfig(config=('192.168.0.4', '255.255.255.0', '192.168.0.1', '8.8.8.8'))

It's seems not what i want to do. Because a client a such config lopy, have '192.168.4.2' and can ping '192.168.4.1'.

Was it possible to set the ip of the access point, and the wifi client too?

@thibault it should be possible to change the AP IP address. We'll investigate it. Thanks.

@daniel i want to confirm this proplem - my home network has the same IP address range like my WiPy2, so this gets realy annoying. I tried same as @thibault (on the REPL) and had the same results. I would like to change the wipy network to 192.168.5.0 or something like that but don't know how.

Hi there,
according to this doc https://docs.pycom.io/pycom_esp32/library/network.WLAN.html you should pass id=1 when changing IP in AP mode.
Didn't test it though...

Kind regards

@daniel Has this been implemented? I'm on a LoPy4 and am under the impression that in wlan.ap mode the device can only be addressed via 192.168.4.1.
