PC Engines becomes Prototype 19 and 20th
Like the old saying goes once you go Wrap you never go back. I finally built out my first two Wrap boards as wireless Mesh AP. Using Locustworld's flash installer I successfully install the software, configured and created a working node in less than 15 minutes. Not bad for a guy who spends a day and half trying to figure out why it didn't work.
Well let’s just say that the software flasher didn't work for me on automatic mode. I went to manual mode and the software was installed properly. I also received some advice to wait for the slow boot up. Since I have no SVGA port to watch it boot up, I could not view boot sequence. Once I've learned the magic of being patient I went to view if I had a connection using DHCP. The IP address was assigned I quickly SSH into the Wrap and never look back. These little buggers are cute and they use very little power.
I will start testing out my alternative battery and solar panel solution with these boards, as the power consumption is minimal.
