Different to the working procedure of 2.0 in OpenHD evo is a lot more versatile. But some advanced features are not exposed in QOpenHD or not automatically enabled.

We differenciate a little in the way that we do not automatically enable the wifi-hotspot. And we also do not stream Video/Telemetry over wifi, but use it mostly for our Webinterface to download Recordings, or debug and SSH-Access.

| Mode                         | Webinterface | SSH | Video | Telemetry | Internet |
| ---------------------------- | ------------ | --- | ----- | --------- | -------- |
| Ethernet-Tethering (Active)  | YES          | YES | YES   | YES       | NO       |
| Ethernet-Tethering (Passive) | YES          | YES | YES   | YES       | YES      |
| USB-Tethering (Passive)      | YES          | YES | YES   | YES       | YES      |
| Wifi-Hotspot                 | YES          | Yes | NO    | NO        | NO       |

## SSH

The username is openhd The password is openhd

## Wifi-Hotspot

To enable the Wifi-Hotspot you need to enable it in Air(TMP) or Ground(TMP) The standart IP for the SBC is 192.168.3.1. The password is openhdopenhd

## Advanced configuation

Sometimes the user may override protection-features like the wifi-hotspot being able to share Video/Telemetry or force OpenHD to send Video/Telemetry to a specific IP. This can be done in the hardware.conf on the SD-Card.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://openhd.gitbook.io/open-hd/software-setup/tethering.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
