Network¶

We have kept this chapter for historical reasons. The OpenPlotter Network application present in earlier versions of OpenPlotter has been removed since Raspberry Pi OS added the Network Manager program and now almost all OpenPlotter Network functions can be done there. Some other functions have been moved to the Settings app.

Now, to turn the Raspberry Pi internal WiFi device into an access point and a client simultaneously, you need to go to the Raspberry Settings tab of the Settings app and click on Hotspot+Client.
