The links for each step will provide details. I’ll keep it brief as none of this is re-inventing the wheel – there’s just a specific order that things need to be done in. The solution isn’t really complex, but it was annoying, so I figured it worth documenting. This caused problems because I needed to configure networking, but could not SSH to the Pi via the WiFi connection as I’d be changing the networking configuration and be booted out before finishing the configuration changes.Įverything could have been done on the command line with a connected keyboard/monitor, but connecting to a network using the LuCi web interface is much easier, hence the somewhat convoluted steps to allow for this. Simple enough to implement with OpenWRT, but I only had a Pi Zero W on hand and it has no ethernet port and OpenWRT doesn’t automatically detect my USB ethernet adapter. The aim here is to supply internet to the Pi via WiFi and have it supply internet to connected ethernet devices. However, it did not automatically configure the USB ethernet adapter I was using. All these features are packed into the slimmest form factor in the Raspberry Pi catalog.I needed a quick and dirty Wifi bridge and the Pi Zero W seemed perfect. It boasts a micro SD card slot, mini HDMI port, two micro USB ports (one for power, one for USB), 512MB of RAM, and a single-core 1 GHz processor chip.
Best yet, it’s nearly identical in form factor, connections, and mounting holes as the Pi Zero v1.3 so you can use almost all of the same accessories-just without the WiFi ones! We love this type of upgrade because we can ditch irritating communication peripherals like an ethernet cable or dongle. And like the Pi 3, the Pi Zero W also has Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) onboard. Sound familiar? A similar chip was also added to the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. Built-in WiFi is made possible with the BCM43143 WiFi chip addition. That’s right, one of our favorite type of upgrades has reached the Raspberry Pi Zero board. The Raspberry Pi Zero W is new and improved with a whopping upgrade! Can you guess what it is? (Hint: W). Dear friend, the chip has risen, so the price has risen.
