Got it - thanks!

Thanks - will give it a go

@crispyoz Sure. The Omega is a kind of 'hotspot' i.e. it connects to an in-range network and also another client can connect to it over wifi (e.g. laptop). If I connect a USB camera to the Omega, I can use my laptop and connect to the Omega over wifi - "Omega-XXXX". Once I have connected I can point my browser to the streaming URL and view the camera output.

If the Omega cannot connect to a known network itself, this is where I start to see the issues. The performance of the stream as viewed on the laptop over wifi has skips and freezes.

Let me know if this makes sense. Thanks

@crispyoz Hi - I've been exploring this some more since we last spoke with. different chips. It seems that if the Onion cannot connect to an AP there are latency issues. If the Onion is connected to an AP - minimal issues (I'm using video streaming over WiFi as a test)

Any idea why this would be? Does the Onion 'search' constantly for a connection if it doesn't have one and this affects performance?

@crispyoz Thanks!

Hi - once an Onion has been set-up and LAN connection over Wifi to another system is working with no issues (e.g. Omega-XXXX to a laptop) - will the system work without the original Wifi connection used to set-up?

I am about to take the system 'on-the-road' and I will not have my home Wifi setup to take with me!

Cheers, S

@crispyoz cheers for the inspiration and cheers to you!

@crispyoz wow everyday is a school day - thanks!

@crispyoz when you refer to *nix - what exactly are you referring to? Thanks!

Got it - thanks!

Hi - thank you for the reply.
a) Network: I'm using a direct wifi connection between the macbook and the Onion to evaluate the setup
b) Processor Performance: Unknown
Any further thoughts?
Thanks
