By WiFi, in this case, I'm referring to my home WLAN.
This isn't a new install, I'm looking at extending what I do with that
particular Pi. I've tried using the Pi on WiFi in that location and it
can disappear off the network for prolonged periods of time. Likewise
if I'm stood next to it with my mobile, it has reverted to 4G rather
than WiFi for data, so the location is not really practical for a WiFi
based solution.
Using the Pi as an AP could work, that isn't something I've tried yet.
The Pi lives in a plastic IP55 box, so I would hoped that short range
(couple of feet) WiFi / Bluetooth would work.
Thanks
Adrian
