pNode wifi setup issue

#7

Google has changed some policy for wifi control on Android 10. So we’re having issue with setup node/update wifi on Android 10. Please contact @Peter for support.

Hi @sjo114 @SynthiaNominae, we are thinking about a temporary way to help you set up the Node. I will keep you guy posted.

Ethernet? I can do that.

Thank you! I can’t use the Ethernet option, the area where I keep my pNodes is too far from my router, and I can’t run 12+ Ethernet cables to my little home router…

Buy a 16 port switch, place it near your nodes then run one Ethernet cable between your router and the switch.

Hi @sjo114 and @SynthiaNominae, the Node must be activated using the Wi-Fi connection to ensure the firebase token is activated.
Get back to this case, I wrote a guide here: [Android OS] "Could not setup Wi-Fi and connect to Node"

Hope that works.

Will try this process soon and post update on results. Thanks.

@Peter This process worked. Thank you for the instructions.

A general tip to add to node setup: having the phone too close to the Node can cause the setup to fail. I guess due to wifi interference.

Hello, I just received my pnode so I want to configure it. I deactivate cellular data, I connect to my modem (I have two modems and tested the operation on two different modems, 2 different access providers) I scan the qr code, enter the wifi code, but when it is switch on the node-xxxx network, the application crashes and stops (when I go to the wifi parameter I am well connected to the node) I try x times to restart the 2 modems as well as the node (and forget the node network in wifi setting) and restart the phone too

Hi @dmonter,

Could I know your device model and OS version?

How ingrained is Firebase into Incognito? Firebase owned by privacy-invasive Google. Can Google be eliminated from this project?

Hello, thanks to the help of peter (private conversation) I solved my problem, for info I use an old mobile phone (under android) so I used a friend’s phone under iphone, without any problem for configure the node then I retrieve the node on my android phone as well as my private key of my node (LLIZ-XXXXXX). Thanks for your help

Hi @key, Firebase is used while setting up the Node. It helps to maintain the transmission between the Node and the Incognito app.
When we remove the Google service in the future, the Firebase will be removed, too.
