The hotspot should be enabled and on by default on a fresh Patchbox OS install. If you connect Patchbox to a WiFi, it automatically gets disabled, it can’t do both at the same time. Also, it works only on RPi3 and RPi3B+, it may work on ZeroW, but I personally haven’t tested it. It can also work with older Raspberry Pi’s, if a WiFi dongle is insterted which is capable of acting in ‘access point’ mode, usually it’s the bigger ones.
Try enabling WiFi hotspot again, follow these steps:
patchbox
- go to
wifi
- go to
hotspot
- select
up
to enable it - select
status
to see the current configuration.
Let us know if this worked.
