Hi,

Is there a way where we can use this firmware scripts to boot up a RPI as an access point so i can connect to it using a fixed ip for example and then set the wifi credentials?

I want to use this firmware where a RPI will load as AP and so i can join it from my phone (fixed AP name for example) and then i can use the browser since we are both at the same network and then set my wifi settings.

let me know if there is away and i missed this out.

Followed instructions to install all dependencies. Selected com port and board.
During upload command getting exec: "/bin/arm-none-eabi-g++": file does not exist.

Two issues related to receiving a IOTHUB_CLIENT_CONFIRMATION_ERROR:

1. After resetting my mxchip, about 50% of the time I get into a situation where the connection to IoT Hub is not made, and I keep getting IOTHUB_CLIENT_CONFIRMATION_ERROR. (See details below).

2. When the above is happening, the data is not making it to IoT Central, and yet the device still displays an increasing "sent" and no fails. So another problem is that I don't even know when things are failing.

Details for #1:
Here is what is displayed (over and over) in the serial monitor:

When executing ./start.sh it shows the following error:

And I updated start.sh to use libboost-python1.55.0. When executing the updated start.sh it shows the following error:

It looks like there's a more recent version of the firmware, v1.2, over at the more recent version of this repo under the Azure namespace. The Code section of this repo redirects to the Azure version, but the Releases page on this repo still indicates that 1.1.0 is the latest version. I believe some of the docs still point to the obsolete Releases page, is there any way we can disambiguate that on this end, add a note to indicate that these releases are no longer considered current?

When flashing the firmware of the MXChip with the IoT Central firmware, it may take some additional steps to have the firmware be recognized.

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/mxchip-devkit-iot-central-firmware-flashing-errors-ben-vollmer/ has the fix.
