singh763173 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Hi all, just recieved my Pineapple down here in the UK! Thanks for the fast delivery! I've got one problem (I'm probably doing something really n00bish) - I have assigned the static ip of 172.16.42.42 and the subnet of 255.255.255.0 and I am unable to ping the Pineapple or SSH to it either (x.x.x.1). I have run Netscan to see if another IP pops up at all and it hasnt so im left a little confused! That is the correct IP right? I have also let the pineapple try to assign an IP but only get a loopback adress. Anything else I can try? Or am I being really stupid lol Cheers all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Linux: ssh root@172.16.42.1 Try a crossover cable instead of a straight patch cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singh763173 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 Tried both. Didnt work, I have a known good xover cable as well as the one that was provided which didnt help (is the cable that is provided with the pineapple xover?)

Mr-Protocol Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Not sure, I went the DIY method. I would suggest trying to do a live boot of linux and run the wp3.sh and see if that works.

napisani Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I had the exact same problem when I first got my ap51 from hak5, no matter how long I let it boot I never got a reply when I pinged the 172.16.42.1. I just flashed it with the newest version of the firmware at wifipineapple.com booted and worked fine since.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singh763173 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Share Posted December 7, 2011 Just tried the super quick start in BT5 but it failed so i tried regular quick start... went through all the options - it did its thing and then when it was pinging it said unreachable like on my windows box. pinged it myself and the same. although it did complete but still cant access the UI. changed the IP of etho0 also and still nothing.

Ill wait off for a bit to see if anyone else has any suggestions though but if it does come down to it, am i following this guide? http://hak5.org/hack/wifi-pineapple-flashing-guide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I would re-flash with the new firmware from Seb. Lots of fixes since then. I will make a video later of how to flash the AP51 on Windows and Linux sometime later tonight if i get time to :| Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr-Protocol Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 The procedure is pretty straight forward, tools are in my signature. Just like any other flashing of a router using tools like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
