Ask HN: Help me plan this feature for my Raspberry Pi
I have a project consisting in a network of Smart Kiosks powered by Raspberry Pi each one. It is an amateur project in the way that I am just an amateur trying to make stuff.
Right now, when I want to add a new node (kiosk TV), I will connect manually to wifi.
Obviously this represents a variety of problems, so I'm looking for solutions.
I'm thinking of creating an open wifi network without internet (hotspot), and from there a password protected page to insert your internet wifi credentials (like in routers)
So, It should:
- Have this second network permanently open - redirect any page to this config page - Have the necessary processes to detect wifis and set a new connection profile that will be the new default.
Where do I start? Any blindspot or better way?
