Hello there,
can anyone please help setting a static ip address in Hass.io, following the instruction in homeassistant is not helping, i cant find the network folder where is the resin-sample file to edit in the boot partition ,
can anyone please give me detailed instructions on how to set up a static ip in Hass.io ?
Here’s how you do it.
Step 1: take that SD card and put it into the Pi and follow the hass.io instructions until you can access the UI.
Step 2: take a usb stick put it into your PC and rename it to “CONFIG”.
Step 3: create the folder “network” and inside create a text file called “my-network” then delete the .txt extension click yes and it should save.
Step 4: open up that file with Notepad++ or similar and paste in these lines. Change the IP and gateway IP as needed.
Step 5: where UUID is you need to generate a unique one at here copy and paste it into the “UUID: section”. Save and remove the USB stick from your pc.
Step 6: shutdown your pi (pull the power or thorough SSH) and insert the USB stick into any free port. Start up the pi by plugging it back in.
Step 7: once it starts go to the Hass.io tab in the UI, click on “System” on the far right, find host system and click “import from USB”.
Step 8: wait around 2 minuites then shut down the pi, pull the USB and restart it should now have a static IP.
This should help I might actually edit the GitHub page. Riley
Thank you so much LavaGlass and Vlad, this fixed it, this just helped me alot.
And to answer EGO01, the issue is sir that the ip i want to assign it to the pi is outside the DHCP range, and usually routers can reserved DHCP ips to a mac address if its inside the range, so assiging a static ip locally on the ip is required .
