A quick reply from Tiuptek as always. So It does work but it is not as smooth as what i recall from the Asiair. One can‘t switch between Stellavitas from within the app. It’s a 2 steps process each time. Best way to explain is to simply paste their answer.
Dear,Eric Gagne
The Stellavita bridging mode is divided into wired bridging and wireless bridging.
If you insert an external network card and use wireless bridging when using Stellavita:
When using a mobile device:When switching the Stellavita connection, you can first connect to another Stellavita's WIFI network. After successful connection, switch the WIFI network to the home network. At this time, exiting the app and reopening it will also connect to another Stellavita.
When there are two mobile devices: you can connect one mobile device to one Stellavita. If one of the devices is not connected, you can first connect to the WIFI network of this Stellavita, and after successful connection, switch to the home network.
If you are using wired bridging by connecting the router through a network cable:
At this time, the router's backend will display two Raspberry pi devices and allocate two IP addresses.
When using a mobile device:When switching the Stellavita connection, exit the APP first, then reopen it, and enter the corresponding IP address to successfully connect.
When there are two mobile devices: You can connect by entering a Stellavita IP address on a mobile device.
The above steps, you can refer to and try them out.
