So let's jump right into the main event - we had a fantastic pull request merge yesterday that's going to make life so much easier for anyone working with CSI provisioning. You know how sometimes you're dealing with managed networks and your CSI channel just doesn't want to play nice with your access point? Well,…
Our contributor ruvnet tackled this head-on with pull request 250, adding two super useful command-line arguments to the provision script. First up is the channel argument - now you can explicitly override the CSI channel to match your AP. So instead of crossing your fingers and hoping everything aligns, you just…
But here's where it gets really neat - they didn't just add manual control. The system now auto-detects your connected access point's channel when there's no override set. It's like having training wheels that automatically come off when you need full…
