PineAP -> Client Mode

[matbee]

I just received my Pineapple today. I'm at a bit of a loss, to be honest. I've followed this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHnQwTCKe2o

Each time I enabled PineAP it disables my WiFi connection. I don't use the Management Access Point.

How do I enable PineAP and still make the internet usable for clients connected? I'm missing something.

This is because wlan0 and wlan1 are required for the full PineAP suite. The management AP is simply a virtual interface of wlan0 (hence the wlan0-1).

If you want to use wireless clientmode and run PineAP, you will require a third radio. We sell a small nubbin, and a larger, more powerful alfa, and they both work great with the WiFi Pineapple NANO and TETRA.

You can also use ICS (internet Connection Sharing) of your Nano is connected to an Laptop (there are some tutorials available here), or to your mobile.

But I think wlan2 (a 3rd adapter) is the easiest way even if it'l consumes more energy (or course)
