tarnedoo Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Hi, I just bought this awesome gadget and I think i have already bricked it.(i hope not) Please helpI connected my wifi pineapple with the mac (OSX 10.7.5) and did the following steps :1.Set the sevice order right ie; wifi above the ethernet2. Manullay configured the ethernet as Ip address : 172.16.42.42 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 Router: Dns server:8.8.8.83. From Sharing, i checked internet sharing with sharing from "wifi" to "ethernet" ( I knew it wont work because of Lion's ICS is locked to the 192.168.2.0/24 network)4. powered up the pineapple and connected its PoE Lan with the mac5. Once i entered the ip address 172.16.42.1:1471 i was welcomed with a login dialogue box in which i eneterd the root and "pineapplesareyummy"password....so far so good6. Then i decided to use the https://github.com/WiFiPineapple/web-interface/wiki/mk34guidemacics "Mac OS X Internet Connection Sharing - Option 1" and sshed in pineapple and did the required setting very carefully (had read the bold warning before starting the process) . Anyways after that i dont have a clue that how i have to get bak into the wifi pineapple "settings page" . entering 172.16.42.1:1471 doesnot connect to any thing.7. When i check , i can see an AP with a name "pineapple 45:82" available and when i connect to it the following info is visible in my Iphoneip address : 192.168.2.196subnet mask : 255.255.255.0router : 172.16.42.1DNS : 172.16.42.1 , 208.67.222.... I have tried to get into pineapple settings with 192.168.2.196:1471 but was not successful , do i need to change the ethernet settings for this ip address ???I have been trying last night but no availMacbook OSX 10.7.5Ethernet configured as: Ip address : 172.16.42.42 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 Router: Dns server:8.8.8.8wifi pineapple mark IVfirmware 2.8.1any help would be greatly appreciated ...

deathdealerxx Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I am not that familiar with Apple products, but I would say you should change your laptop ip address to 192.168.2.42 and try entering http://192.168.2.1:1471'>you should be able to log back into your pineapple.

barry99705 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 If you followed the first part to a T then your pineapple's address is now 192.168.2.254, so you should try going to 192.168.2.254:1471. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 If you followed the first part to a T then your pineapple's address is now 192.168.2.254, so you should try going to 192.168.2.254:1471. barry, didn't you have a good guide for setting up with a Mac? -Foxtrot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarnedoo Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 was able to get into the setting by using 198.162.2.254:1471still facing a problem that the internet connection is still not shared , basing on the message which i get when i press the update button of firmware in the pinaeaaple settings. it gives me a msg no internet connection, plese check your connection or words to that effect . same message is given when i press the find infusions tab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry99705 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 barry, didn't you have a good guide for setting up with a Mac? -Foxtrot Yea, it's the first part of the howto the op is using. I'm still in the boat that Apple's internet connection sharing is too screwed up to use for the pineapple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesugarat Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 If you can reset your pineapple to normal you might try Option 2 on the same guide.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zz2Fac3zz Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Are you just trying to download infusions and such? If so instead of sharing internet through your computer just plug the pineapple into the router and connect to your pineapple via wifi. Also if you are stressed out from working with your Mac I recommend taking a min to watch this classic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOEKBC1JPz4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
