Installing on a Pi Zero
-
I have a Linksys Mesh setup here. The nearest point is about 10 feet away.
For trying script, yes it was after flashing. This issue with the Wi-Fi just started recently. The Pi Zero came with a Google AIY 2.0 kit I purchased. I was using that AIY image Google was putting out. I wonder if that is a better image since it was targeted for the Pi Zero and the rest of the kit.
Hmm. Wi-Fi just came back up as I was typing this…and back down

@KNERD there is a post here about changing the wpa_suuplicant file
https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=201850also, if u remove the hat does it work? might be a power supply problem
-
The Wi-Fi was functioning just fine with the Google AIY image. I looked and thought I was using a 2A power supply because it is a CanaKit one. However, looking, I see it is only a 1A. I found another PS with 2A output. I do have other things connected to it such as USB Hub, mouse, and keyboard.
Looking at that link, I do not think this applies to me, as I am not headless. Wi-Fi is having issues again: not resolving DNS.
I am going to try the Google AIY image again since it seemed I was having more stability with it.

@KNERD have you restarted your router,?
-
I know it is not a router issue. I have a complicated setup here. I have a router on site which is in Bridge Mode so the actual router in use does PPOE to connect to the ISP. The router has no Wi-Fi, and DNS disabled. The Linksys Mesh is in Bridge Mode in order to be a part of the LAN addresses. DNS and DHCP is done separately with Pi Hole. No other devices on Wi-Fi are having issue.
The Google AIY image is booting, now. I will give an update if I got issues with that, or not.

@KNERD ok, seen lots of reports of DNS issues w pihole
-
@sdetweil I think those "DNS issues’ with Pi Hole come from Pi Hole themselves for making the blaclist which they setup too strict. My DNS issues have nothing to do that. My network is not having DNS issues, just that Pi Zero while using the newest Raspberry Pi OS.
Hope to have an update within an hour
-
Update: Wi-Fi still having issues with shutting down, and not putting the DNS in resolv.conf file.
I think I got a USB Wi-Fi I can try out, and even a USB to ethernet.
Thank for taking the time to respond and help.
I still got a Google AIY kit 1.0 here to use on a regular Pi, but prefer the smaller size of the Pi Zero.
I also got a Orange Pi Zero here I can try out, if the Pi Zero Hat will fit on it, or if your install script will work on it.
-
@KNERD script will work
-
@sdetweil said in Installing on a Pi Zero:
script will work
I dug out a USB to ethernet. As soon as I plug it in, I got an IP address and a good connection. After a while, the connection also broke in it also.
I wonder if there is a power save feature on it, or it is just broken.
