With a #RaspberryPiZero2W & #usbhub https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/USB_HUB_HAT_(B) possible to use 4 #lora #radio #rnodes at same #reticulum #meshchat interface. Can use 4 different sets of radio parameters at one #LoRa #radio interface. Can use 1 radio with low #spreadingfactor #sf for short transmissions at high data rate for large payloads like images or accessing #nomadnet #pages and 1 with larger SF for longer range. No need to choose between #meshtasic presets https://meshtastic.org/docs/overview/radio-settings/ ! just use them all ! Magic

Can I power a #RaspberryPiZero2W , via its dedicated USA- micro USB-A power port, from the USB-A port of a #raspberrypi4 , wherein the Pi4 is running on the official Pi power supply? I seem to see USB problems on the Pi Zero's 2nd USB-A micro USB data port (for connecting USB devices to Pi Zero) when the power to the Pi Zero is from the USB-A port of the Pi4. #RaspberryPi

Does anyone also get that the bash command:

sudo apt full-upgrade

and (edit:)

sudo apt upgrade

on a #raspberrypizero2w #RaspberryPizero causes the #USB interface
as shown by the bash command #lsusb :

lsusb

to fail to detect any USB devices?
#raspberrypi #upgrade

Edit: My workaround: plug in a #hub and the devices in the hub are detected. Very odd indeed. The original OS was 64 bit lite.

#lora #radio #reticulum using #meshchat
If one #rnode (rnodeA) run by device A, e.g #RaspberryPiZero2W , has is its own #wifi #hotpot (as shown here https://loramesh.org/subpages/pi_install.html#pi_hotspot) (with SSID & password),
& another rnode (rnodeB) run by another device B (any device with wifi) joins the hotspot (SSID & pwd),
& rnodeA & rnodeB both have the 'default interface' activated in their reticulum meshchat GUI,
the wifi hotspot *alone* (without radio) will enable sending messages via reticulum between A and B !

that uses the Pi's #wifi #accesspoint #ap to allow the GUI of #MeshChat to be used on a #smartphone to access the #mesh and #message and send & receive #images #photos on the move using #Reticulum

Setup -> I have a #RaspberryPi #RaspberryPiZero2W running #linux #pios #RaspberryPiOS #headless

Aim: I want the pi to always offer a #hotspot #wifihotspot on #boot
based on the command

nmcli device wifi hotspot ssid pizerohotspot password my_password

Is this below a bad solution ?? -> I came up with this solution in the link below using a .service but fear it shows I am clueless? Is there a better way? Thanks!
