## What is it?

> Yocto Basic Gateway is a project based on Yocto, Intel Edison and some connectivity protocols.

## Prerequisites

> You must have an Intel Edison up running without any troubles and connected via serial connection. Make sure you have the latest Intel Edison Yocto image installed.
>
> > you can check version `cat /etc/version` or `configure_edison --version`

## Setup

> Now run configure\_edison --setup, the option --setup is not present before doing an successful upgrade always check for latest image updates: configure\_edison --upgrade
>
> Hint: if you are on build >=68 you can activate the Wifi AP mode (see section down) and run the configuration via webconsole [http://your\_Edison\_IP\_address](http://your_edison_ip_address)

### Turning Edison into an WLAN/WiFi Accesspoint

> working as well just press the power button between 4sec & 7sec sec and you will find a hotspot with the name you have given your Edison during setup, use the given root pwd to get a connection. My Edison can now be reached e.g. from smartphone via SSH your\_Edison\_IP\_address (notice different network setting as with DHCP above) ATTENTION: will stay in AP mode after reboot!

You want manuelly to switch back from AP mode in Client mode of Wifi? simply run configure\_edison –setup again

systemctl stop hostapd systemctl disable hostapd systemctl enable wpa\_supplicant systemctl start wpa\_supplicant wpa\_cli reconfigure wpa\_cli select\_network wlan0 udhcpc -i wlan0
