TimberSweet Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hi, I'm either missing something fundamentally simple or I've lost my mind, but here goes. Got my pineapple today and have successfully got it up and running on 2.8.1 without any hitches. The thing is, I just can't get it to join my WPA wireless network using an ALFA AWUS036NH. I can see that its there using ifconfig and iwconfig but I can't see how to join it to the network. What am I missing? Surely it can't be that difficult? TIA, TimberSweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpoeticg Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Well, to join WPA network you'll need to either use Network Manager infusion or use wpa_supplicant. If you don't know what wpa_supplicant u can do a search on the forums. A few people have wrote helpful scripts to automate the process. But on 2.8.1 Network Manager should work perfectly for u.

TimberSweet Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Thanks for the quick reply. Downloaded Network Manager and it seems to work, thanks! Think I've been staring at a screen too long today.... TimberSweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
