If you wanto to change WiFi ssid and password without using the Yi app, you can do it with an SD card.
- Remove power from the cam.
- Download the following archive and decompress it to a FAT32 formatted SD card: sdwifi.tar.gz
- Edit the file configure_wifi.cfg according to your needs. Pay attention to the special chars:
- Don't use backslash char \
- Don't use double quote " around ssid and psk
- Space chars are allowed
- When you open the SD card you must have the yi-hack folder with 3 files inside.
/ --- yi-hack --- configure_wifi.cfg
|-- configure_wifi.sh
|-- startup.sh
- Insert the SD into the cam and power on it.
- The cam will reboot once.
- Check the wifi connection.
- Remove the SD card.
- The script makes a backup of the flash partition where are stored ssid and password (in case something goes wrong).
