For a current project, I want to set up a standalone Blynk-Server on my Raspberry Pi Zero (version without inbuilt WLAN). I am using an EDIMAX Wifi Dongle EW-7811Un V2 and was able to set up the standalone Hotspot, with help of:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/access-point-routed.md
and by following this forum and deleting the file for the blocked adapter as suggested by DannyMTK commented on 23 Sep 2019 in GitHub:

Up to now, this is fine. However, when I wanted to set up the Blynk Server I realized, I need an Internet Connection for downloading the Java Package, etc.
So I followed this nice guideline from Ingo: Switch between wifi client and access point without reboot
But no luck, I can't get it to work. How I configure the Pi to change into a wifi client for grabbing updates, packages, and other stuff?
The plan is to switch between standalone AP/Wifi Client only for grabbing updates. Normally the Pi stays as a standalone hotspot.
Thanks before.
