Troubleshooting • Re: Pi Zero 2 w motioneye wpa supplicant

If that is Motion Eye OS, by default it looks for a wired connection. And if one isn't detected it will reboot and try again, and again. That's assuming you haven't added wpa_supplicant.conf to enable the WIFI. Mine is as follows. I put it in the first partition on the SD Card

Code:

        country=CA        update_config=1        ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant                network={            scan_ssid=1            ssid="My SSID"            psk="My Password"        }

You actually answered my question and provided a resolution to the issue I had when I tried using motionEyeOS on a Pi Zero 2 W lol. I could never get past the damn boot portion where're its looking for a Hard ethernet connection.
I'm goin to copy paste this on my windows pc so I can try again now that I know what the issue was. Sorry OP just had to tell *alphanumeric* thanks for solving my problem while helping someone else ) I'm glad I read a lot of these threads .... never know when it will resolve a issue for someone else.
Thank You
