    I have a script that will ask you what wireless device eg. wlan1 then once you input it it will change the tx-power to 30 but just a reminder that is illegal in the US and you will eventually burn up your radio.

    Well share the wealth.... lol 

  2. Good Afternoon, 

    I was wondering if someone might be able to help me out. I tried searching for the answer before but couldn't get what i was looking for. I'm in the process of purchasing the ALFA USB WIFI AWUS036NEH from the shop. What I'm trying to find out is would this device be able to change the tx-power from 20db  to 30dbm? 

    Thanks in advance. 

  3. I found my issue after looking around some more. Someone had the same problem, i guess I had a very old version of the firmware. I was about to scp the file and extract .. it's rebooting now so we will see if that fix the issue. 

    Here's the link to the thread and site . 

     

  4. Hello all, 

    Well I tried to search before posting but I need someone help. One of my co-works bought a pineapple mark V. Since he's a tech and always buying gadgets he forgot about this one. He didn't want it so he gave it to me. I was very excited to play with it. Everything was still in the bad like brand NEW... after reading the instruction on how to connect it and upgrade the software I'm running into some trouble. Since I'm on a mac i can't connect the ethernet cable to the pineapple. I turn on the device and connected it using the wifi. I setup the password and was able to get into the interface. I then this video on how to setup it up from Darrel . Tutorial: Unboxing and Upgrading WiFi Pineapple Mark V - Pineapple University

    I was able to join my network just find. I have the red,blue, and green light on. I'm even using my wifi right now while typing this through the pineapple. When I tried to do a firmware update I keep getting

    "Error connecting. Please check your WiFi Pineapple's internet connection." how's that possible since I'm using the wifi from it. 

    I tried everything and still nothing is working on updating it. Am i doing something wrong or do i need to change something since it's a older model? 

     

    Any kind of help would be awesome!

    Thank you, 

  5. Well I just got mine this week and plan to play around with it. I also have a mac without any ethernet card slot. I was planning to connect to it wifi. The only thing i'm confuse about is once I configure the pineapple how do I get it online?

    I really don't want to connect it to my network at home, would I have to buy a wifi adapter and connect that way? I'm really interested in trying it this way. that way at work i just join the the office public network and let the pineapple sit there and see who connects to it. That way the clients still have internet access.

    Is that something that might work? i'm just doing this for education purpose only not for anything evil..

  6. I agree with you that the dev are to busy on coming up tut's. I know they do a great job on keeping the updates coming out with different things. You're right going to basic and moving forward from there. But someone like myself that just received his pineapple a month ago was to learn how to configure it and be able to get internet access on it. that's all nice but now what's next or what do I do?

    We could go and on about this subject but will anyone start it? that's the question for us.

  7. I was looking over the wiki, but I don't see any howto's and stuff. the only thing I see are the basic if your pineapple turns into a brick or how to upgrade it. those are nice but would be nice for other howto's.. If I had the knowledge on how the pineapple worked I would write it down for other users. Even if i couldn't do it on the wiki i would create a blog or something for users. But that's just me.

  8. Kool. So, the unbrickable Pineapple bricked? Now once I shell out more $ for this adapter I can flash a upgrade or something? Is there instructions on flashing using this adapter somewhere? plz

    Trust me I'm new to the pineapple and this whole thing. the flash took me about 15 mins. Everything has been working fine now. Good luck

  9. Thanks for that -- now what are the necessary steps to get the ALFA USB WiFi AWUS036NH up and running so I can manage the Mark IV through that wireless connection. I currently am managing it through the Poe/Lan port and 'puter. I'd like to manage it tirelessly through that.

    I'm sure this is covered somewhere but I have no luck finding it.

    That's what I'm trying to understand myself too how to manage the pineapple when it's remote. I have some what of an idea but not sure. A good tutorial or example video would be good.
