No, your laptop also connects to the hotspot. If you have available wifi at your location, you can then setup the pi to use that wifi and disconnect the phone hotspot, and just use the local wifi on all devices.
Ive just found this to be the simplest setup. I briefly had serial over bluetooth set up, and it was an easier way to change the pi’s wifi, but it broke pretty quickly for me not sure why.
Probably the most elegant solution is ethernet over usb, but thats a bit of a pain to set up.
For me a hotspot has been the least headache
What i usually do is set up a wifi hotspot from my phone, and connect the pi that way
Edit: just looked at your link. I think for the time being im going to use tailscale. Its a restaraunt, and they dont have a self-hosted server. Im trying to get around opening ports, so using an existing service. Your link did make me aware of cloudflare tunnels whick looks like it allows 50 users on a free plan vs tailscale’s 3. Although the 3 might work for them, I’ll have to check. Ill probably drop in an ngrok tunnel too so i can maintenence the pi remotely. (They are in a different state) i was mostly looking for advice on how to connect a port on one machine to another over a lan, and socat looks perfect
Actually, i found socat which seems to work just fine so far, and appears to be a standard linux command.
socat TCP4-LISTEN:8096 TCP4:192.168.86.2:8096
Thats a test i did with jellyfin at home
Oh that makes sense because when i originally set it up, i did want all traffic routed through it. I guess i didnt realize it didnt have to be
Something ive noticed from using wireguard from my phone is my traffic across the board slows down significantly while connected because everything is routed back home.
With tailscale can the user be connected, and only have a specific ip/domain routed through it? I also dont have access to the dvr’s internal system to run tailscale from it.
Anyway thanks for the lead, im reading up now
Jellyfin also has a web interface. http://SERVERIP:8096
Obviously, put your ip in there.
Honestly, id just reinstall windows, check the router for port forwarding, change the admin password on the router, and call it a day.
Then, keep an eye on it and see if the situation improves
Well ill be darned. Thank you

I believe it’s just the built-in wayland keyboard. It works just fine, but looks a little ugly for my tastes. If an app doesnt automatically bring up the keyboard, just swipe up from the bottom of the screen and itll come up
Other than that, its a pretty standard touchscreen keyboard. Youre not gonna be doing any “homerow typing” but its easy enough to use, especially in portrait mode. Landscape is a bit long for my thumbs.
I have one running manjaro gnome. Works great for me, but sometimes i have trouble with the onscreen keyboard showing up over the browser (both firefox and chrome). Other than that, it works just fine.
Do you know about f-droid? It’s a foss app store for android.
Naw ive seen a ton of people talking about hot being broken. You should use active
I dont know about under the hood, but by default it has no playstore or google services. I would imagine its fairly degoogled.
Yeah but i dont want to buy a 10 year old system to play it

Ive been using them for a few years. Some stuff to note: you have to pay in at least 3 month blocks. You cannot pay for a month at a time. The prices on the website are just for your first term. After that it is a little more expensive, but not too much. Coverage wise it’s t-mobile’s network, so its good in major cities, but spotty in rural areas.
Ive been mostly pleased with them. When the wife and I go on trips, sometimes my phone gets no service, but she’s on AT&T, so her phone usually works fine, and she’ll turn on hotspot so i can get my messages.
Dang, ok. Using Linux, so i guess i gotta learn the weird qmk programming stuff ive been seeing. Ill probably throw in a feature request with VIA too. Thanks for the info.
