Meteobridge Rpi connecting to new router. **solved**

Post by grwkak »

I have moved house and am relocating all my weather kit.

One item that has me stumped is my Meteobridge. It's running on a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.2.
I have a new router and need to reconfigure the WiFi settings of the RPi.
Connecting with the Ethernet interface, I am running into issues - all I end up with is a rapidly flashing red light on the Pi and no connection (no IP address seen when looking at the list of clients attached to the router). So I have no way of changing the WiFi settings.
What am I missing?

I don't do Raspberry Pi (or read the Pi setup instructions) but maybe similar to a MBPro/Nano etc with built in AP that is alive for a certain amount of time after powering up?

Try looking for the MB AP from a laptop with WiFi enabled?

Solved - attach a keyboard and press 1 to reset network config. Then use LAN connection to set-up new ssid etc.

Yes, that is the way to do it. The wiki explains keyboard options for RPI systems here: https://www.meteobridge.com/wiki/index. ... eteobridge
