windows 10 iot raspberry pi 3 wifi hotspot - powershell

I am trying to make my RPi 3 an AP using Windows 10 IoT core. RPi is connected with internet through Ethernet port and I want to make RPi 3 builtin WiFi to share internet with other devices. I have read documentation page but it is not working for me. I have tried with Windows IoT Onboarding and from PowerShell also. After selecting adapters from IoR Onboarding, clicked on start sharing service and a message appears which says "internet conncetion sharing has started" but I can't find network on other devices.

has started" but I can't find network on other devices.
You could open Windows Device Portal and set your raspberry pi3 as the following instruction. Before doing this you would connect your raspberry pi3 with WLAN.
Select IoT Onboarding option on the left of the page. Then an Adapter configuration must be chosen. You could choose Access point adapter Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter #2 and choose Shared network adapter LAN9512/LAN9514 USB 2.0 to Ethernet 10/100 Adapter.
Then clicked on start sharing service. You could see the message appears which says "internet conncetion sharing has started".
At last make sure select enable in radio box and click on save button under the SoftAP settings. There is a message says reboot your raspberry pi3 for changes to take effect the SoftAP settings. Please click yes and your raspberry pi3 will be restarted.
After your raspberry pi3 is started you could connect your devices like PC or mobile phone on the SoftAP which is on raspberry pi3.

Movesense: how to determine wbcmd port on Windows 10

I have a movesense device with the programming jig.
I can connect to the jig using j-link, I can program/firmware update the device, but I can-not connect to the device using "wbcmd". Keeps coming up with "No device connected"
The programming jig is listed in device manager as USB device "J-link driver" but does not have a corresponding COM port.
What is the connection I put in "port" settings in the following command:-
wbcmd --port xxxx --path /Info --op GET
Thanks in advance.
Connect the J-Link and run SEGGER J-Link Configuration tool, select your probe and enable Virtual COM-Port.
Unplug and reconnect the J-Link, the COM port should appear.
The COM port of Movesense jig is completely separate from the SEGGER (in fact you don't need to have SEGGER connected to use it). The easiest way to get the COM port number is to open the Windows "Device Manager" and open the "Ports" sub tree. The "Ports" is not visible if there are no COM/LPT ports in the system:
To access the sensor over COM-port the UART must be swithced on (it's off by default since it uses over 1 mA of current). That can be done using Android version of Movesense Showcase App (wrench icon in top-right corner). Sensor needs to be reset/power cycled for UART setting to take effect.
Full disclosure: I work for the Movesense

Running Home Assistant (HASSIO) locally without an internet connection

I am new to Home Assistant and I currently have a disc image of the software installed on a Raspberry Pi 3b. I have managed to get this up and running successfully by connecting my PI to an internet connection via an ethernet cable and connecting my laptop to the same network wirelessly. The problem I am facing is that I wish to run this locally without an internet connection and simply connecting my laptop to the PI with the Ethernet cable does not seem to be working. I have tried looking around for support but I cannot seem to find much on the matter.
Home Assistant's default port is 8123 not 8023.
If there is a direct connection between your laptop and the Raspberry Pi then the chance is high that mDNS won't not work. Thus, homeassistant.local is not reachable.
Add a static IP address for your Home Assistant host and your laptop.

Remote Connection to "Raspberry Pi" via "Windows IoT Remote Client" leads to a white blank screen

I have Windows 10 IoT installed on a Raspberry PI 3 B, and I am trying to connect to it via the Windows IoT Remote Client running on my laptop. (+)
As it mentioned here and here, there is a related known issue in Windows 10 IoT on build number 16299.
Consequently, when I try to connect my Raspberry PI via the Remote Client, it shows me only a white screen. However, it makes me able to use the mouse and keyboard connected to my laptop to control the Raspberry Pi.
In the description of the known issue, it says: "Drivers must be manually copied and registered on the device.".
Then my question is what do you know about the drivers that should be copied manually?
And is there any way except than waiting for next release of windows 10 IoT?

Windows IOT - Raspberry pi not connecting to wifi

I have a raspberry pi 3 running windows IOT and it works fine when on a LAN connection. However the issue is that I want it to be on wifi. I have set the wifi connection up and set it to automatically connect and if I then remove the LAN cable everything works fine. But when I reboot the pi it refuses to automatically connect to the wifi. If I go back to the settings and select my wifi network it has the "Connect Automatically" box checked but when I click connect it asks me again for the password...
It is as if it is not saving the password for my network. How do I fix this issue?

Any known method to browse PC localhost from iPhone via USB cable (sans wifi)?

When I run a test mobile site in Visual Studio 2010 and it gives me a localhost:4331 I would like to find a way to forward the HTTP port over to my iPhone through the USB cable so I can test on the device.
They key here is using the USB cable instead of a wireless network, as I am working in a very locked down environment where no wifi is available.
I want the iPhone to connect to the internet through the USB cable, so it would be using my Windows LAN connection and have the Windows localhost be visible to iPhone Safari.
I don't think you can do this. You either need to use WiFi, or have your server exposed on a public network that is accessible via your carrier. You might have some more options with a Jailbroken device.
Follow these steps to see it working -
Connect your iPhone to your PC via USB
Find Tethering and Hotspot setting and enable "USB tethering" on your iPhone.
When your PC has been successfully been connected to the internet, type
"ipconfig" in the command prompt. Just copy the ipv4 address(along with port) and enter it on
the browser with your localhost active
If everything goes fine, then enter the same ipv4 address on your mobile(along with port) web
browser.
The server homepage will open on the iPhone.
I hope this helps.
