@cymplecy
you can read the official docs
https://docs.meshcore.io/faq/?h=wifi#76-q-how-do-i-connect-to-the-companion-via-wifi-eg-using-a-heltec-v3
> A: WiFi firmware requires you to compile it yourself, as you need to set the wifi ssid and password. Edit WIFI_SSID and WIFI_PWD in ./variants/heltec_v3/platformio.ini and then flash it to your device.
Or you can be lazy and use stuff like this:

@kolorafa Thanks. The lazy way worked for me :-) Connected 1st time using my python bot, then tried the web app - it won't use WiFi - says my device doesn't support it :-( which is a shame as I much prefer to use my computer than my Android phone. The phone app worked 1st time as well
