Using a HD210W, and I was wondering if it's possible to change the SSId of the device remotely. Once these units are deployed, I won't have easy access to swap out the SD card with new a new setup. Ideally, I want to change the SSID remotely. All attempts I have made so far have not worked.

    This would have to be done via a modification to the autorun script. You could publish a new project with a custom autorun. This new custom autorun with include a code snippet that sets the wifi settings for the device, and then reboots it.

    registry=CreateObject("roRegistry")
    nc = CreateObject("roNetworkConfiguration", 1)
    nc.SetWiFiESSID("Homenet")
    nc.SetWiFiPassphrase("pysu")
    ok=nc.Apply()
    registry.Flush()
    nc=0

    RebootSystem()

    Is this still applicable to Series 3-4-5 players?
    Thanks,

    From recent experience rebooting is not required, nor the need to flush registry.
    If this snippet is to be added to autorun, then you wouldn’t want to reboot without condition because the player would repeatedly reboot…
