New Pi Zero Wireless!


 
Success!! Bryan thank you so much for your hard work in getting this running for the community.

Sometimes I run another RPI on port 80 so I'd like to change my port. I entered the code below on the Startup tab, but does not seem to be applying on reboot. When you get bored could you let me know what I'm doing wrong?

uci add_list lucid.http.address=225
uci commit lucid

It is because there is no lucid any more, it is uhttpd so you need it like this
Code: 
uci add_list uhttpd.main.listen_http=0.0.0.0:225
uci commit uhttpd

Although you can probably just do it at the router when you add the port forward, just have the external port be 225 and the internal port be 80.
 
I previously had the "openwrt-brcm2708-bcm2708-rpi-ext4-sdcard.img" image installed and working. I just tried upgrading my Pi Zero (non-integrated wireless version) connected to my 4.2.4 unit to the lede 4/9/17 build. I first tried via the "system/system" web flashing interface and then tried the Win32DiskImager. The unit shows "No Pit Probe" but doesn't become visible on the AP mode wifi using the edimax USB wifi chip. I also never seen it print the IP address at power up on the LCD.

The Edimax wifi doesn't support AP mode on the snapshot builds. I stopped maintaining my own hacks on the driver to keep it running (the official download does not fully support the needed nl80211 interface) and just use the new kernel driver which doesn't support Soft AP yet. AP mode is only available on the integrated Pi wifi and RT5370-based adapters.

IS IT? I wonder what country it is available in because none of the US retailers even have a listing for it. I would prefer if they focused on cranking out more Zero Ws so you don't have to buy them at retail price in quantity 1 + shipping when you need them. I hear MicroCenter has piles of them, but there isn't one of those stores within 500 miles of me, and they also have a progressive pricing policy. 1 is $5 (what?!), 2 are $15 each, 6+ are $20 each.

I see there's also now a Pi 3 compute module. For folks who are building devices that have access to machines to be able to place SO-DIMM-sized headers accurately, but are too dumb to know there is almost certainly a much cheaper solution?

I'm just a little sour because I wish they would make more Pi!

The lack of availability for the Pi Zero W up here in Toronto is also quite bad. I've only got the one and would like to pick up a couple more, but the prices from resellers are way too high or they force you to buy a kit with things like a power supply, SD card and a case.

Well I was looking at flights to Ottawa this morning and it was just $250 US roundtrip non-stop from Tampa so I'm sure there is a similar deal to Atlanta. There's 2 MicroCenters outside of Atlanta so just fly down and go get one from each store every day then fly back! :-D
 
adafruit has them, limit one per person, just login, buy, login, buy, login, buy, hassle, but, you can get as many as you want.
 
Yeah at $14.05 each :( It would be great if I could actually buy them in quantity 100 for like $9.50 shipped so I could include them in with kits. It gets expensive adding up all the costs of shipping from 6 different stores to build a HeaterMeter. Also LOL at the WH costing $4 extra for soldering on the header, I thought it would be $1 more or possibly $2 at the most.
