[SOLVED] Rename the SoftAP?

General
1

I was wondering if it is possible to change the SSID of the access point created by the SoftAP?
I’d like it to show my product name instead of something beginning with “photon-”.

Edit/Solution [MOD - @harrisonhjones]

You can set the SoftAP prefix or suffix using the following two commands:

System.set(SYSTEM_CONFIG_SOFTAP_PREFIX, "hello");
System.set(SYSTEM_CONFIG_SOFTAP_SUFFIX, "hello");

If you give the search function a try you’ll notice that this has been asked (and answered) a couple times before :wink:

The search terms for that would be something like softap prefix :wink:

I did use the search. I just didn’t think to use the term ‘prefix’.

“softap name” seems to work just fine as well… http://community.particle.io/search?q=softap%20name
