Hotspot troubles
Posted: Mon Nov 18, 2019 12:21 am
Hi Roger and guys,
I bought GD-77 for hotspot mode only and I've been playing a month with and reached some issues. I've used V0.3.3 (current firmware downloaded 27.9.2019).
All tests were done on Raspbian and Debian (in case of x86 platform tests) as well as using current MMDVMhost - I don't using any prepared image for RasPi.

- Hotspot mode started anytime if MMDVMHost runs on x86 platform and in this case HotSpot mode was realy reliable (100%)
- Using Raspoberry PI ZeroW worked almost fine - reliable for 95% in case the RasPi was powered from own power supply
- Using Raspberry PI ZeroW sharing radio battery over DC-DC StepDown converter - reliable for less than 1% - All attempts finished with "Waiting for StarPI..." on display
