I need to include the ability to switch on and off the WiFi network connection of a Raspberry Pi3 running Raspbian Jessie into my FreePascal program.
The commands I am looking at now are: sudo ifup wlan0 sudo ifdown wlan0 How could this be accomplished in a FreePascal program running as user Pi? The Pi will be multihomed (there is an Ethernet network connection in addition to the WiFi) and it has been preconfigured to connect to a specific SSID in the conf file for WiFi. I want my program to be able to switch on the device hosting the WiFi Access Point using relays (already done), then command the RPi to connect to the now active Access Point immediately. Time is of importance here and with just switching on the WiFi device I get connection delays varying from 20 seconds to several minutes. So it seems like a specific command to tell the operating system to connect to WiFi is needed.... -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
