I'm surprised that there are not more people making their own sensors.

I've got a Luftdaten setup in build, but having issues configuring it. Can't get into the GUI to set the SSID and password
Supercell:
Initially it creates its own wifi access point so you need to connect to that, mine was called airRohr-ID
It will use an ip of 192.168.4.1 and IIRC the access point doesnt use dhcp so I needed to temporarily manually put my nic ip to 192.168.4.100 (anything from 2-254 should be fine) to be able to connect
Once connected to its WiFi put 192.168.4.1 in your browser and go from there, its pretty self explanatory.
Once done put own wifi settings back to normal and it will pull its new ip from your router assuming you put ssid etc details in correctly after it reboots.

For some reason after I connected to its SSID it dropped shortly after, and had to restart to get it back, then it'd drop out again. Need to do some more debugging via its serial output when I get more time.
Thanks for the hint about DHCP though, I think I did get an IP at one stage from it, but will try static addressing next time

Its signal is pretty poor, i had to have my laptop right beside it to set it up initially, after that, once it was set up and mounted outside it was fine though.
