Static IP using the HiFiBerry Roon image

I just wondered if it was possible to define a static, wireless IP address using the Supplicant.conf file which seems to be the only editable file for setting up internet connections? The “/etc/network/interfaces” not being in assessable.

Thanks

I’d guess not – but wouldn’t it be better to set up IP reservation by MAC address in your router/DHCP server?

This way, your wired or wireless connection would be assigned the same IP every time.

Thanks, I’ve tried that but for some reason it’s not reliable. I think I will do a manual installation of Bridge.
