[NFBCS] using a raspberry pi as a blind user

[Doug Lee]

Creative, indeed. :) As an aside though, most routers' web interfaces nowadays will also list such IPs with
their DNS/host names as active connections. Having said that, I usually just probe the known range of DHCP
addresses around the ones that I already see used. My VMware Windows 10 guest was for a while operating in
bridged mode and thus pulling such an address, which to my annoyance changed often.

   Hi,

   My only experience was setting it up with a headless install. I used
   NMap prior to plugging it in, saved the output, then generated a diff
   against the new NMap output with it plugged in to find the IP address,
   then I was able to SSH into the system.

   HTH,

   Greetings all,

   This semester I will have the opportunity to complete extra curricular
   projects to receive a scholarship from the cyber security department at
   my university.

   I was wondering which model of raspberry pi and kits setups that each
   of you use?

   Further, what operating systems have you used on it/what screen readers
   have you tested?

   I am tentatively looking at purchasing the raspberry pi 4b model, with
   8 GB of ram, with the android operating system using a talkback
   install.

   Did you all have to purchase a monitor separately, and what degree of
   sighted assistance did you need for the initial setup?

   I know that this is many questions, so please feel free to contact me
   off-list at
