WiFi Manager (multiple network connections)

Applications Release
1

I know that muOS devs working on a solution for multiple networks but until then I composed a script that uses local wpa_supplicant.conf that’s part of the app so you could easily punch in ssid and psk (alternatively password).

You could add/remove and edit directly on the device itself and all changes will be saved to wpa_supplicant.conf. With a ready list you could switch between networks in a tap.

To install, follow these steps:

  1. Download the WiFi_Manager.muxzip
  2. Move the downloaded file to the /mnt/mmc/ARCHIVE folder.
  3. Open WiFi_Manager in applications menu and install
  4. Look for WiFi_Manager in apps menu

Now you could swap between your home’s wifi, mobile hotspot or any other use case without ever punching in the password every time you need to switch.

Cheers! :clinking_beer_mugs:

How is this different from saving and loading your wifi profiles directly from the wifi menu?
Unless this app automatically connects to the nearest available saved network, I believe you, unfortunately, just solved something that have been solved for a while now.

It connects automatically by using priority or manually selecting desired WiFi, you’re more than welcome to try it out

Nice! By the original post i wasn’t sure it would automatically connect to the nearest network, just provided a way to save and manually switch networks, as the regular wifi menu already does. I’ll check it out!

Functioning as expected so far, great work! This can be very helpful, specially for the retro achievements crowd.
I will just recommend you to remove the macOS dot and _ leftover files from the muxzip when possible!

I also added a toggle to turn on/off the auto connect via R2/L2. The dot files and _files don’t bother me much :wink:

I love the idea of this but unfortunately when I close out of the app my resolution on my rg40xxv is wrong until I power off and on the device again. image here

First of all, thank you for your effort, the app works, but when closing it, the resolution gets bugged and forces me to restart the device (RGCUBEXX).

The app was designed on RG34XX in mind so different resolution on different devices will result in odd resolutions when exiting it.

My workaround is to run a rom and once you exit the resolution resets.

Before you hard reset try to login the device via ssh and kill the process, if that doesn’t work soft reset with L2+R2+Select.

Thank you for the feedback :folded_hands:

you could probably add this to the end of the mux_launch.sh script to have it set it back

[ "$(GET_VAR "global" "settings/hdmi/enabled")" -eq 1 ] && SCREEN_TYPE="external" || SCREEN_TYPE="internal"
FB_SWITCH "$(GET_VAR "device" "screen/$SCREEN_TYPE/width")" "$(GET_VAR "device" "screen/$SCREEN_TYPE/height")" 32
