[arm-allstar] Wireless IP Address

[David McGough]

Hi Mike,

Does the WiFi work with the IP address it has gotten: a.b.c.100 ??

If so, I'm guessing that the WiFi MAC address of the RPi3B+ is different 
than you're expecting it to be.

You can confirm the MAC address by using admin menu option #9 to go to a 
bash shell. Then, use the ifconfig command, like:

[root at hamvoip-kb4fxc asterisk]# ifconfig wlan0        
wlan0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.112.111  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.112.255
        ether b8:27:eb:b6:44:28  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 6066700  bytes 984989310 (939.3 MiB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 5740068  bytes 2641234968 (2.4 GiB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0


...The MAC address is listed on the 4th line, above:

ether b8:27:eb:b6:44:28
