    Antenna Setup?What would be best?Just curious.

    in WiFi Pineapple Mark V

    Posted · Edited by King Crimson

    Thank you barry99705,

    added the link to my speed dial. Just out of curiosity, what kind of gain do you see on that?

    Never really a fan of the pringles can, but soup cans, you know, real metal, work pretty well if you can find the right diameter. Somewhere around here I've got a cantenna made from an alcohol bottle christmas tin. It's a tad undersized, but works.

    VI Goodies

    in WiFi Pineapple Mark V

    Posted · Edited by King Crimson

    I have noticed that there are a lot of vi goodies that are not implemented on the pineapple. I am unable to "set number" and I cannot "undo". Is there a way for me to implement these?

    Thank you,

    Shell Confused

    in WiFi Pineapple Mark V

    Posted · Edited by King Crimson

    I am confused on how shells are used on the mkv. I am trying to add /root in my path for scripts I want to run. Couldn't find much information on ash on the internet except basically people asking the same thing as I with no answers. Kos was nice enough to let me know bash is on the pineapple and the profile is in /etc/profile. I added the /root to the path in the profile, but when I shell to bash it doesn't see it.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    root@Pineapple:/etc# cat profile
    #!/bin/sh
    [ -f /etc/banner ] && cat /etc/banner

    export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/root
    export HOME=$(grep -e "^${USER:-root}:" /etc/passwd | cut -d ":" -f 6)
    export HOME=${HOME:-/root}
    export PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ '

    [ -x /bin/more ] || alias more=less
    [ -x /usr/bin/vim ] && alias vi=vim || alias vim=vi

    [ -z "$KSH_VERSION" -o \! -s /etc/mkshrc ] || . /etc/mkshrc

    [ -x /usr/bin/arp ] || arp() { cat /proc/net/arp; }
    [ -x /usr/bin/ldd ] || ldd() { LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 $*; }
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/sd/lib:/sd/usr/lib
    export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sd/usr/bin:/sd/usr/sbin
    alias opkg='/usr/bin/opkg-fixed'

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    root@Pineapple:~# pwd
    /root
    root@Pineapple:~# ls
    ipforwardon.sh

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    root@Pineapple:/# ipforwardon.sh
    bash: ipforwardon.sh: command not found
    root@Pineapple:/#

    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Addendum: Resolved.... Thanx all. <_<

    Amylase,

    I am currently shopping for antennae, what kind of range do you get with that?

    I purchased a couple of these adapters, and they work great.

    and this 19 dbi alfa panel antenna, which I am very impressed with.

    Karma Black/White list files

    Thank you Sebikinne,

    Since the Karma interface doesn't show the black/white listings that I have added, I thought I would try to find the files myself. I will sit tight. Thanx again for the speedy response.

    At the moment they are kept in RAM, not flash. Our next iteration of karma actually has a lot more when it comes to usability and versatility.

    Stay tuned.

    I guess the 50 bucks I spent on the travel kit upgrade was mostly for the carry bag. :D My battery works fine and deploying is easy-peasy. Been having a blast and very satisfied with the purchase.

    I came really close to sending the unit back in when I couldn't help staring at the screws on the unit so I broke down and opened it up. I noticed that the unit's very cheaply made, most of the connections were poorly soldered, some were mashed in there putting tension/pressure on sensitive areas.

    After going in and correcting the problems, the unit's working properly. I don't recommend just anyone doing what I did since we're talking about a lithium ion battery pack, it's better to send it back but I'm a little further out than most so my impatience got the best of me.

    I also recently purchased the following http://www.amazon.com/14400mAh-Multi-Voltage-Portable-External-adapters/dp/B005NGLTZQ/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1384257965&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=anker+usb+battery+14000 and love it. 14,400 mAH, 5/9/12v modes, 2A output on the USB ports, with a cable accessory kit that's compatible with the Pineapple.

    Ethernet Connection to Pineapple Keeps Dropping

    Hello,

    I have ran into a bit of a problem. Was working fine but today, when I boot up the pineapple, I no longer see the slow flashing blue light. All lights begin blinking in no particular pattern and the pc keeps saying it's connecting and then says no cable is connected. I tried a factory reset but just get the green/blue led steady and red/amber leds flash indicating a flash is complete. For the reset, switches 2 and 3 are pushed down. Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you,

    KC

    Addendum: I reflashed and all is well. Cheers :)

    Does anyone else have their ssh session hang when issuing a "ifconfig wlan0 up/down"? The command works but i have to reloggin. Not the end of the world but definantly annoying to be sure. :-/

    Addendum: The instructions work like a charm, but at 30, I definantly felt the bottom of my pineapple heating up. Changed back to US for further investigation.
