Static IP address

[emefbiemef]

Is there a file to modify for specifying static IP address parameters?

Not at the moment. You can use "reserved DHCP" from your DHCP server or play around with ifconfig (refer samtap/fang-hacks#86)

I have done it before by modifying the "01-network" script in fanghacks, so how do I do the same in this fork? Is the file located on internal flash?

[zecoj]

Have a look at /etc/rtsp/my.rc.local.

You can try comment out line 15
udhcpc -i wlan0 -p /var/run/udhcpc.pid -b &
and replace with the ifconfig command.

If it works, I'll implement static IP in the future.

I'm replacing that line with these:

ifconfig wlan0 10.1.7.78 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.1.7.255 2>&1
echo "nameserver 10.1.7.1" > /etc/resolv.conf 2>&1
route add default gw 10.1.7.1 wlan0 2>&1

These lines work in fanghacks. Will it cause any problem in this fork?

[zecoj]

Looks OK to me. If it failed, you can always re-apply this hack using Chuck Norris mode.

[emefbiemef]

Yep, it works. Wow.

Maybe you can implement it in such a way that doesn't require re-addition of my.rc.local into files.tar everytime we change the IP address parameters?

[zecoj]

Yes, that's the plan.

One note though, it didn't work the first time using the method in "Updating SSID/PSK/etc" (even after rebooting multiple times).
I then enabled Chuck Norris Mode and it worked after reboot.
