• RAE
  • Rae ID for WIFI Access Point connection

To create a wifi access point - the SSID is 'rae-<ID>'. Where do I find the ID? It's not in robohub.

    jakaskerl A network "rae …" is not exposed (using MacOS 14.0). Can it be hidden? I can search for wireless clients to my local network and find and connect using that ip, as well as connecting via the usb ip.

      SOLVED by resetting the device using rm -rf /data and reboot. SSID now appears and can login.

        Did you resetting the device by ssh to the rae and then then simply removing the data folder by using rm -rf /data ? Was the rae wifi detected before? It seem I cannot find my rae access point. I have tried hard resetting the button and your method but I still cannot see my rae wifi access point.

          HI jojoba

          1. SSID of your particular RAE can be found at /etc/hostapd.conf
          2. I dont recommend that people use rae as AP but here would be steps to use it as one:
            -Disable robothub-agent and robothub-tunnel (systemctl disable ...)
            -remove /etc/systemd/network/20-wifi.network (tho keep the details of it stored so you dont have to reprovision if you want to use agent again)
            -enable wifi service (systemctl enable wifi)
            -reboot

          Thanks,
