[How to use External Alfa Card to connect Nano to my SSID?]

Yes, thank you.  There is an option in the GUI and it works.  I'm still going to mess with your terminal method later today.  I'll let you know what I find out.

[How to use External Alfa Card to connect Nano to my SSID?]

*Update*

I have connected to the Internet with the following commands:

 

# ifconfig

^ This tells me that wlan2 has been added when I plug in my Alfa Wifi adapter.

# ifconfig wlan2 up

# iwconfig wlan2 essid (my essid name) key (my key)

# udhcpc -i wlan2

 

NOW... is it possible for me to use this connection from the Alfa card for the Pineapple GUI?  If I try to load bulletins or list modules for download, I get an error that there is no Internet connection.

I have an Alfa with the Atheros AR9271 chipset.  When I plug it into my Nano and log in with SSH, I can see that it is recognized as wlan2 on the Pineapple Nano. I'm just not sure on what commands I can use to actually search for or enter my SSID and connect to it with my password.  Any suggestions?

which modules creates problems on SD card?!

I'll have to play with it when I get home and I'll let you know.  I've also read about some modules not running correctly unless they are install on the SD card instead of internal.

I'm new and have had 1 for about a week.  It was frustrating at first but you have to keep playing with it and figure out it's quirks.  You want to make sure it's getting the right amount of power.  I had it running directly off a raspberry pi for a while and some things didn't work properly until I added some additional power.  You also have to save some modules directly to the pineapple device and not on the SD card for them to work.  Once I figured that out, I realized this thing is awesome.
