Repeater function
This project looks great ! I often have problems with wifi reception in my fermentation room :-( I have some questions about the project ;-) What is the function of the part whose STL is in the repository ? Is the transmission of information to external software (Littlebock for me) implemented ? Thank's
Hello STL were a first try for a housing for the screen itself. To be reworked The external transmission has never been so close to be finished :)
Hi ZeSlammy, firstly great project!
I'm only interested in the repeater functionality as I've started using a corny keg as my fermenter inside my fermentation fridge and my iSpindel can no longer connect to my WiFi access point, only about 1.5m away!
I plan to waterproof a D1 mini, without external screen, and attach this to the side of the keg. I've been testing the current release, I can connect it to my WiFi, change some settings and then monitor through a serial port. I keep getting the error in the gist below and all settings, apart from my WiFi, are lost, do you think this is due to having no TFT screen attached?

I'll have a look @kmccor but yeah, there is a heavy Screen related element so it might trigger issues not having a screen.

@kmccor just an FYI for you, the D1 Mini Pro with the ceramic antenna such as this(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08HH96RJY) has a stronger signal and I'm successfully using these in my iSpindles to get a signal through a 1/4 barrel Sanke keg! Works MUCH better than the standard PCB antenna versions, but I do also place a mesh satellite router next to the keg to connect reliably. Keep in mind a corny keg is much thinner walls though.
I'm planning to build an iSpinHub to use as well. I'll keep you updated on how well it works.
