A bit of a Raspberry Pi newb here, so bear with me! I'm using a Raspberry Pi model 3 for a university project, which means that I hop around different locations and have to get on different WIFI networks. I'm hoping to use SSH to operate my Raspberry Pi on my Lenovo and run code. I believe I'll want to assign the Raspberry Pi a static IP address for the sake of SSH, but am expecting I'll have some issues getting the pi to connect to the right WIFI network immediately. Does anyone have advice on how to go about this? Should I simply bring a monitor with me whenever I use the Pi, and manually select the WIFI network on the Pi?
Or is it a safer bet to simply connect my pi to my laptop via an Ethernet cable every time I plan to use it? That way, I control which network it's connected to and can ssh
into the pi from there.
