While playing and testing I found that there seems to be a bug with autohotspotN
when it comes to detecting if the hotspot is up. I looked and found raspberryconnect.com (which I can't find on github or any other version control) have revised the script. So I expect an RC2
I seem to have an issue that the hostspot is down.
I can test if its down running:
iwconfig wlan0 | grep Managed
Also the new autohotspotN introduced a line that kills dhcpd, which is actually needed for IPv6. It makes me think it might be a good idea in the long run to build a much more robust system, where one part determines the sate, and another makes sure all the services are up running and happy. That way "turning it off and on again" solutions might be far more rare.
Use RC2:
#7
