Linux setup instructions need work


Recommended Posts

1) You say:
 

  • From the host PC, configure a static IP address on the WiFi Pineapple facing Ethernet interface to 192.168.1.2 with netmask 255.255.255.0
    • For example, in Linux run ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up (where eth1 is the interface name of the WiFi Pineapple).
       

But that will give you the same IP as the pineapple -- 192.168.1.1

2)There's a good chance eth0 is already on 192.168.1.*  in which case you have to put that interface down first.  Instructions for bringing it back up later are also appreciated.

3) To find out the ethernet adapter name, suggest running `sudo ifconfig -a`

4) Mention that 192.168.1.2 will not allow you access to 172.16.42.1:1471
For this, you must edit /etc/network/interfaces as follows:
# add this to the bottom of /etc/network/interfaces,  eth3 should be replaced by the name of the device from the ifconfig -a above
auto eth3
allow-hotplug eth3
iface eth3 inet dhcp

5) You won't have internet access again until you complete the internet sharing setup via wp6.sh script (include link etc)
