      I know this sounds stupid but my usb hub will not let my only keyboard connect to my Raspberry Pi zero so I was wondering if there was a way to configure my wi-fi dongle using my keyboard then unplugging my keyboard and then plug in the Wi-Fi dongle in and have it already configured is there a way I know this sounds stupid in the long way around but I have no choice

        @jayofcastleford Use a powered USB hub. I had one that I could only run one device from at a time, so had to get a powered hub.

          Thought that's what I'd have to do.

            @jayofcastleford if the wifi dongle works, you can out your wifi credentials in the boot partition so it will connect on boot

              @herb_fargus I forgot about that herb. Think I set my Zero up before this was implemented.
