Blog2012 ≫ Good night's sleep!

Relatively good anyway. I went back to the "go to bed early and set the alarm for the dream feed" as I was tired and thought I could have an extra hour or so sleep. This makes it tricky to wake at the time for the dream feed, but in theory I had more sleep. number two son was as snuffly as ever but did not wake up crying, so we're all good.

I gave up on trying to get wifi working on the raspberry pi, it's not down to drivers as I thought for my old WG111 dongle, it's just down to not having enough power - wifi eats up the power, and the power from the raspberry pi alone is not enough, I need a powered usb hub and to plug the wifi card in to that. This might put a stop to my wifi plans for now - I could plug the raspberry pi into a solar panel and battery in the shed maybe, but extra power demands might push it beyond the realm... Just sticking with indoors and cabled into the network for now.
