Is it possible to toggle between two different configurations in BlueOS?

I set up my windows computer and the raspberry pi to connect via wifi by enabeling the Mobile hotspot feature in Windows 11. Using raspi-config I can get the Pi to connect. However, the Mobile hotspot has an IP of 192.168.137.1 and the raspberry gets 192.168.137.95. Once turned on Pirate mode I was able to use the browser to see everything by the new ipaddress…but…

the mavlink router endpoints are all 192.168.2.X. Is there a way to easily switch between the two ip families? OR, can I configure mavlink-routerd endpoints on both and also have QGC listening on both?

Any thought are appreciated!

Hi @Tautala -

That’s quite an unusual approach to making a link!

If your BlueOS Pi has gotten an IP, simply add a new UDP client endpoint on the Mavlink Endpoints page via the + icon in the lower right. This will automatically fill in your client IP, and once created QGC will automatically connect!

Of course, messing with this is only required for QGC, and not Cockpit….

As always, I figured that out AFTER I made the post :wink:
