Screwed up my hotspot

[W4ejv]

Ok , I have my second hotspot connected to my ATT mobile hotspot I scanned for the IP address was able to bring up pi-star But it was not my original pi page I thought since it was a second hotspot on a different device maybe I needed to fill it out. Well not only does it not work but it screwed up my home hotspot and I can no longer get into the pi-star server. Any ideas on how I can fix this . Love my radio but hate the whole config crap.

I'm not an expert, but I've done this too, and found it easier just to start from scratch. I've also learned that when I get a configuration that works, I save a good copy of the image. Also, I think you need to add an ESSID to the DMRID with a second hotspot. Again, not an expert...just trying to offer some help.

Thanks , I have considered starting over . I did save my original config but seem’s like I have messed up pi-star as it will not longer log me in. Just this morning I contacted pi-star Administrator for help and waiting to hear back. Before all this I had add my mobile hot spot along with the Essid and hit save and connect but it didn’t work. I do appreciate your help and response, thank you.

Pi-Star is at end of support for the time being. You should be looking at WPSD at this website: w0chp.radio

Do you have two DMR ID's?. TAKE YOUR TIME and figure it.. KNEE JERK solutions cause bigger problems.. It's something simple

Re do the sd card all over again and start over and make sure the other hotspot is off when you de the second one so your ATT hotspot can give it a new Ip address........

Thanks, I will look at the w0chp tonight and may switch to that with clean sd cards

The developer disagrees with you. In fact, it's just been updated this month.

No, I was responding to the post I quoted. To rephrase, the Pi-Star developer hasn't said Pi-Star is at end-of-life and just released a stable version this month: Pi-Star Downloads - pistar.uk

Ok sorry, I knew they just did an update I thought maybe their support (admin help) was at an end. Again I appreciate all the help

Not true. Pi-Star is still under active development and is still a viable and excellent DV software distribution. In fact, Andy, the Pi-Sar dev, is using some of WPSD's code in his latest updates.

Indeed - the rumor that Pi-Star support was discontinued at the end of last year was apparently not correct as there is now even a beta release of Pi-Star for bookworm. End result is a win-win for hotspot users; we now have two different hotspot applications that are both being actively developed and expanded. One of the better summations of the "Pi-Star vs WPSD" info is here -

I know the developer was looking for additional support. I wonder how much of the EOL rumor was based on that, and on this page.

Pi-Star is NOWHERE NEAR end of support. There have been updates the last couple weeks and they are working on the Pi-star 5 project.
