Removal of a dead network ID

Stipus,

How you remove a dead network...i.e.you re-installed the PC and now you have a new network number.

Cheers,

The best way is to edit Config/hspi_bt.ini

1) Shutdown HS
2) Edit hspi_bt.ini

You will find one ini section per network

[Network0]
Param=Value

[Network1]
Param=Value

[Network2]
Param=Value

[Network3]
Param=Value


If you want to remove Network1 and replace it with the last added Network (Network3), just delete the whole [Network1] section (with all parameters), and rename [Network3] to [Network1].

First step: delete [Network1] section. You get this

[Network0]
Param=Value

[Network2]
Param=Value

[Network3]
Param=Value

Second step: rename Network3 to Network1. You get:

[Network0]
Param=Value

[Network2]
Param=Value

[Network1]
Param=Value

With this method, the good thing is that you don't have to change any of your rules.

You have to know that the plugin starts to read Network0, then Network1, Network2... and no gap is allowed. If one section is missing, the plugin will stop reading.

Thanks for that I wasn't sure so I thought it best to ask before I break it! ...for a future reature it might be nice to include a field in the network config page which simply states the date of the last contact with the network.


Cheers,
