Add browser

Post by UB8CDY »

Add a browser to the pi-star, a usb modem is installed on the repeater, so the repeater receives the Internet, the usb modem is controlled through the browser, otherwise there is no way to connect to the modem and control it, I strongly ask you to add a browser. Thank you for understanding.

Installing a browser will render 60% of hotspots usless. Those that are built on pi zero, pi 1,2,3 SBCs will not have the processing power to run a full Gui. Installs built using pi3b+, pi4 boards will do fine but that isn't what the majority hotspots are built on and we have no intention to render 1000s of setups useless.

If you run one of the larger, more powerful boards you have the option of installing a gui yourself. Mike has a good how_to. it isnt supported here, and you do so at your own risk...
