Description

Check if the PPP's wifi supports AP mode. If so, then PiNet will work for simple network setup. It's certainly preferrable to having to write an app with a keyboard to enter data on the phone.

Initial test of pinet-client on ppp:

Jan 18 08:51:08 (none) user.notice root:  * calculate_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for pinet:
Jan 18 08:51:08 (none) user.notice root:  *     imwww * 
Jan 18 08:51:08 (none) user.notice root:  * opkg_solver_install: Cannot install package pinet.

So the imwww dependency in the opkg/control file needs to be removed for pinet-client builds.

Fixed (not pushed yet). Next problems:

  1. Selected/Password fields are too long - the former pushes out the Security combo box.
  2. Selected/Password fields are too thin - should be taller.
  3. Buttons are too thin - should be taller.
  4. Keyboard is not displayed, possibly because the required keyboard is not installed (it should be installed with pigtk - check the xeon dev system pigtk buildroot package).
  5. Touching Selected/Password fields should make them active, but app crashes instead.
