Hi Xneox,

Please understand that people get anoyed when they get these very general questions. They are also thinking to themself " This guy can not even setup an internet connection, what is he doing with a pineapple ?" this is basic network stuff. Just do trouble shoting like you would with any PC ( ie can you ping, are your ip setup correct, make sure the cable is connected to the correct port and so on ).

The above video is realy well done and it is very clear just make sure you do everthing correct.

If you are doing this then give the output so people can analyse what you are doing wrong. Make a clear long description of your problem.

I know we all have to start at some point. But in order to get help you will need to give a more specific issue description

Typical beginner mistakes are not connecting to the pineapple POE port but to WAN port

and trying to reach pineaplle under old URL and not the new ( 172.16.42.1:1471 )

you say in first post " I have set int ip gate way addresse to my wifi card" The gateway is your router IP and not your WiFi card

anyway good luck

Describe what you have some step by step so far, Ubuntu is fairly easy to setup the pineapple on, so should only be a minor problem

Just tried that boba I can access the management console but still no Internet communications

[Mr-Protocol]

I have a video being uploaded shortly. I will update this post.

Watch on YouTube for full screen and high quality to actually see something. I cannot be asked to do any video editing lol.

[xneox]

Should I do a factory reset in the management console before doing the above?

[Mr-Protocol]

Not needed.

I question: I use Backtrack 5 R3 and my problem is:

Pineapple connected to eth0

Internet in Backtrack it´s in Wlan0

I connect to my router and then run ./wp4.sh.

All runs nice, but some minutes later, the connection lost, aparently because wicd make a auto connect to eth0 killing the wlan0 connection to internet.

I try make a wicd stop but nothing.

So, I read in the forum several problems with pineapple and wicd. There is a way to replace wicd with the network manager that appear in the video?

My backtrack is 5 R3 Gnome and runs in it´s own partition no Virtual.

Thanks a lot.

You just have to disable networking service in BT5.

/etc/init.d/networking stop

Then you will have to make your connections manually to the wireless network. Or maybe it will keep connection if you use wicd and then kill it.

I ran into this issue too. Wicd doesn't support concurrent connections. Since it is easier for me to manually configure eth0 than set up a WPA supplicant, etc, I went the route of simply telling wicd not to configure the ethernet connection for me. This is really simple. Under "Preferences, General Settings" in wicd, erase the interface name for the wired interface. This worked like a charm for me and made wicd forget about my ethernet.
