Wi-Fi in advance for OpenSignage – self-hosted digital signage for bars, restaurants
and events: set up a player's Wi-Fi over the LAN in the office, then take it to its place
without cable.

Changed: Wi-Fi can be set up in advance

Player web interface (https://<player-ip>:8443) → Network → Wi-Fi → Change settings:

  • A Wi-Fi network that is not in range can be entered now – SSID, password, country.
    Confirm the change with a login over the LAN as usual; the player joins the network as
    soon as it is in range (also after a router restart or a power cut).
  • Meanwhile the network page says Not connected – joins "…" automatically as soon as the
    network is in range
    .
  • A network in range that refuses the password is still undone at once, so a typo never
    takes the player off the network.

On Debian players this already worked; on Raspberry Pi OS such a change used to be undone.

All changes: CHANGELOG.md ·
guide: docs/user-guide.md.

Update

Installations on 1.x update from the web interface (Settings → Updates): the server updates
itself first, then the players zone by zone.

Raspberry Pi players: the change is in the network helper, which only the client
installer replaces – run it once more (name, pairing and content stay):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/testbild-media/OpenSignage/main/install.sh | sh -s -- player

Players still on 1.3.0 or older need the installer anyway for the network settings of 1.4.0.
