After writing, to allow the Raspberry Pi to connect to Wi-Fi directly, and to log into the Raspberry Pi OS using SSH tools, two preparatory steps are needed:

  1. Open the boot drive letter, create a new ssh file without an extension. This opens the SSH service on the Raspberry Pi.

  2. In the boot drive, create a wpa_supplicant.conf file with the following content:

country=CN

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev

update_config=1

network={

ssid=”Your Wi-Fi Name”

psk=”Your Wi-Fi Password”

key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

priority=1

}

Insert the image SD card into the Raspberry Pi, provide power, wait a few minutes, and when you see the yellow light flashing, check your router list to see if a new network has joined. Record its IP.
