cody t Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 hey everyone, ya know how the wifi pineapple displays the name of "pineapple" as a wifi network, well is there a simple easy way to change this (to "at&t wifi" for example) over scp? note that im on a mac using terminal to scp.

Sebkinne Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Edit /etc/config/wireless Do not do that! Sadly many people make mistakes and it causes a soft brick. Update your firmware, do it using the UI. Best, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PineDominator Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 My problem with it tho is that even after changing the SSID the old one is there as well. Its a client issue for the most part, restart your laptop/device not the pineapple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkrb0i Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) @Sebkinne: if that were true, none of us would ever work at the root prompt, as the potential to fuck up is endless. A GUI? Maybe if you are new to UNIX/Linux. Mistakes happen, but if you are going to admin as root, you have to live with the consequences. Hmmm, I wonder what this command does?, rm -rf /* ;) Cheers! bkrb0i Edited April 23, 2012 by bkrb0i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
