Hi, I have the usb hub from Hak5 shop connected to usb charger with red port and connecting only sandisk cruzer fit 4gb as secondary swap partition and Alfa NHA external usb antenna and pineappple connected to brick and when I turn on anything on wlan 1, the interface goes down and led on NHA stops glowing. What can be wrong with my set-up?

Hi Foxtrot, thanks for the answer! I am using powered USB hub and 12v DC/1200ma power brick..I think that should be sufficient. The usb hub is the same as the one sold in Hak5 shop.

Hi, I am new to Pineapple and have been pretty successful setting it up, however with one big exception: I am unable to use both internal and external(USB) radio at the same time without NHA powering down and back up. I have seen this might be related to power issues, however I am running both USB powered hub and power brick when testing this. lsusb output: lsusb Output Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0781:5571 SanDisk Corp.

Any hints? I have no idea where to go next.
