Pre-Configure WiFi Settings

Help and Support
1

Evening All,

Just curious, Is it possible to pre-configure the WiFi Settings from outside of code?
For example, when using Ubuntu or Raspbian OS you can configure a wpa-config file and pre-stage the details.

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
network={
    ssid="change_me"
    psk="change_me"
    key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

If this isn’t already possible, would it be in the future?

Thanks

Simon

There is already a pre-seeding option in the OSMC installer which allows this, however it does not work with the latest version. It will be fixed in a near future update.

Ah Cool, I guess that’s using the official installer over Raspberry Pi Imager?

Yes – that’s correct.
