LeetCodes Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to basically use the pineapple to connect to wifi access points and share it with my laptop over ethernet Quote
Mr-Protocol Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Yes, it is possible. I can't mock up a setup right now though. Quote
barry99705 Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 What you're talking about is a client bridge. I google'd around but can't find anything on how to set it up from the command line. If you were running a normal router firmware it would be a few clicks in the gui to set it up. Quote
Sebkinne Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Well, download the network manager module, connect the pineapple to the AP using wlan0, connect to POE/LAN port on the pineapple, don't set your ip to .42 but something else and set your route to be 172.16.42.1 if it isn't already. That will do the trick! Quote

Jewel Theif Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Wow how cool. Can't wait to try this out. Quote
barry99705 Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Pretty much any access point has this capability. Quote
