PI-Star Wifi SSID not visible disabled - Hidden SSID

PI-Star Wifi SSID not visible disabled - Hidden SSID


So what I have found Pi-Star does not seem to find the WIFI SSID if it is disabled or if SSID is hide

I'm start working with a raspberry pi and I'm dealing with a WiFi network that is not available everytime. This means that there might be a period of 30 seconds, let's say, during which the network is available and in the following seconds it is not.

Which steps should I take to ensure that my raspberry pi automatically connects when the WiFi network is available?


I've seen some tutorials about the wpa_supplicant and I already have the file /etc/init.d/interfaces with:


sudo nano /etc/init.d/interfaces

auto wlan1allow-hotplug wlan1iface wlan1 inet dhcpwpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.confiface default inet dhcp

sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={
ssid="Mcdonalds"

psk="enter-password-here"
id_str="1"
priority=100
}

(And I also have the /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf and the /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf files)
I know that this is enough to setting up a WiFi connection (when the network is reachable anytime).
But in my case, is this enough?


enable read-write with "rpi-rw"

rpi-rw

Error writing interfaces: Read-only file system

network={
ssid="Mcdonalds"
scan_ssid=1
psk="enter-password-here"
id_str="1"
priority=100
}

Correction // update 👍 ✅


sudo nano /etc/init.d/interfaces
sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
