my raspberry pi is running in my wifi with a static ip that is set up in /etc/network/interfaces
. I have a second wifi and I want to switch between the two wifi using a single command. I can't connect to both at the same time because the pi has ni onboard wifi and it freezes after a while when using two wifi dongles. How can I switch between wlan0 and wlan1 simple with on command? Perhaps I need to config wifi in an other way? dhcpcd or wpa_supplicant?

You can use wpa_supplicant
to control the wlan0
and wlan1
, a multiples configuration file is also allowed:
pkill wpa_supplicant
wpa_supplicant -B -c/etc/wpa_supplicant0.conf -iwlan0 -N
-iwlan1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant1.conf
Then use ifup
and ifdown
to switch between the interfaces, wlan1
should be configured under /etc/network/interfaces
.
the man wpa_supplicant
:
-i ifname
Interface to listen on. Multiple instances of this option can be present, one per interface, separated by -N option
(see below).
-N Start describing new interface.
wpa_supplicant can control multiple interfaces (radios) either by running one process for each interface separately or by
running just one process and list of options at command line. Each interface is separated with -N argument. As an example,
following command would start wpa_supplicant for two interfaces:
wpa_supplicant
-c wpa1.conf -i wlan0 -D nl80211 -N
-c wpa2.conf -i ath0 -D wext
