๐ก This flashes both the firmware binary and the LittleFS web-asset image
in one step โ the same as running
./firmware/flash.sh --all.
Before you flash
- Remove the front face plate from the antenna switch to expose the controller board.
- Plug a USB cable into the micro-USB port on the ESP8266 controller board.
- Connect the other end to this computer.
- Click Install above, select the serial port that appears, and follow the prompts.
After flashing โ first-time WiFi setup
- The device reboots. The OLED shows
ssid: AutoConnectAP. - Connect your phone or laptop to the AutoConnectAP WiFi network.
- Browse to
http://192.168.4.1โ Configure WiFi โ enter your SSID + password โ Save. - The device reboots and joins your network. The OLED shows the assigned IP for a few seconds.
- Open
http://uberant.local(or the IP shown on the OLED) in a browser.
๐ก If you need to bake WiFi credentials into the firmware image at flash time (so the device
joins your network without the captive portal), use
./firmware/flash.sh --ssid MyNet --pass secret from the command line instead.
