Configure WiFi connection

Configuration
20

Hi,

This worked for me:

  1. Connect the raspberry pi to HDMI (to display the cli) and power
  2. Wait for the Home Assistant OS to boot (you should see some loading things on the monitor)
  3. When it launched the CLI (with the prompt ha >), type in the following comand: network info and find for your wifi interface (mine was wlan0)
  4. Run the following command network update <interface, for me was wlan0> --ipv4-method auto -- ipv6-method auto --wifi-auth wpa-psk --wifi-mode infrastructure --wifi-ssid <wifi name, in quotes if there’re spaces> --wifi-psk <wifi password>

This allowed me to connect my raspberry pi to the wifi network without going through the config file
