The problem is that I have reached a dead end as far as getting it running.

I'm wondering if there are any intrepid souls out there who have managed to get this thing operational.

It's not so much the basic connectivity of astrop gear at this stage. It's more about being able to control it all from a dry and comfiortable place indoors i.e. via wifi.

Any experiences would be interesting and helpful.

Peter,


There are two ways to get this functional with wifi.
1) Have it connect to a router. This is simpler.

2) Have it act as a hotspot.


Either way you need to enable VNC or another way to control it and then VNC into it using its assigned IP address. This step is beyond a short response and I am not familiar with Astroberry other than knowing it is INDI based.
