You need to have a Raspberry Pi Zero W<\/strong> installed, a Zero<\/strong> does not support WiFi or Bluetooth.<\/p>\n

Create a new text file and name it wpa_supplicant.conf<\/strong><\/p>\n

Open the wpa_supplicant.conf<\/strong> file with notepad (or notepad++).<\/p>\n

Copy and paste the following text in to the file<\/p>\n

country=US
\nctrl_interface=DIR=\/var\/run\/wpa_supplicantGROUP=netdev
\nupdate_config=1
\nnetwork={
\nssid=”your_wifi_ssid”
\npsk=”your_wifi_password”
\nkey_mgmt=WPA-PSK
\npriority=1
\n}<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can now update the three lines shown below in the red boxes<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Replace the country code if needed (GB, FR, DE, ES, US, CA etc..).<\/p>\n

Replace your_wifi_ssdid<\/strong> with your wifi ssid (ex: \u2018\u2019homewifi\u2019\u2019).<\/p>\n

Replace your_wifi_password<\/strong> with your wifi password (ex: \u2018\u20191234\u2019\u2019).<\/p>\n

Save and copy it to the root of boot partition on your Micro SD Card (the only partition you see on PC after burning the image file).<\/p>\n

Copy it on wifibackup<\/strong> folder too for an easy re enable by script.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Insert the Micro SD Card back into the Retroflag GPi case and it is now ready to use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
