LATEST NEWS (25-Jun-25)

Once again, Brooknet was off (since 19:14 BST on 24th June), due to a reset of the Wi-Fi. I spent a few hours wandering around the flat with my phone, resetting all of the Tapo plugs and lights, and the Amazon Echo devices. With all this going on, I forgot that the webserver was on Wi-Fi - which is a silly thing to do anyway, because it's not reliable. A day later, I got around to reconfiguring it, so it should be connected again (as of about 16:53). Google "raspberry pi os wi-fi" for some helpful ChatGPT hints and see configuration.html on the Raspberry Pi site. TLDR: Use raspi-config (System Options/Network/Wireless LAN).

Other stuff: hacker emblem (glider) fixed. Some browsers will not display this because the URL is not on an SSL connection. Annoying. Don't forget to read 'How To Become A Hacker'.
