Hi Franz. I think Matthijs actually posted today that support for that is available in pre-release firmware. He used the words "release candidates". I don't do beta's, but you might??
Hi; besides whats been written already, ‘early 2019’ is the best answer
Using a Wi-Fi dongle it is possible to connect to WEP, WPA and WPA2 secured networks. There are four supported USB Wi-Fi dongles. Two of them are also available from stock at Victron Energy:
CCGX WiFi module simple (Nano USB), small, low cost. Victron part number BPP900100200
Gembird WNP-UA-002, slightly higher cost and also better reception. Victron part number: BPP900200200
Startech USB300WN2X2D
Zyxel NWD2105
New model coming early 2019: Asus USB-N14, slightly higher cost and also better reception. Victron part number: BPP900200300. Requires a firmware version not released yet.
Although other Wi-Fi dongles may work, they have not been tested and we do not offer support for other dongles.
The Wi-Fi menu shows the available networks. When a network is selected, it is possible to fill in the password (if the password is not already known) to connect to the network. Setting up via WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is not supported.
When the CCGX finds multiple Wi-Fi networks of which the password is known, the strongest network is selected automatically. When the signal of the connected network becomes too weak, it will automatically switch to a stronger network - if it knows the password of that network.
Additional resources still need to be added for this topic
