Setup url not resolving

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I recently bought a wifi pineapple tetra at defcon and I can't seem get the setup url to load. The light is flashing blue so I know it works to some degree and I don't think it's because my internet connection is too slow either, what should I do?

Here's the output of ifconfig:

Yeah, I tried it on Windows and I had the same problem. Here's the output when I ping it:

Hi NShoe,

That is some very strange behavior. Because you are able to ping the device, it will be a software issue. Thankfully we are easily able to recover the WiFI Pineapple TETRA. Simply follow our Firmware Recovery instructions on our FAQ. This should get you up and running in no time.

Ok, here's what went down, I hit the reset button, the yellow LED was solid, then I plugged it into my laptop and tried to configure a static ip address for it and I got this error in command line:

	root@unix-Latitude-E6320:/home/unix# ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFNETMASK: No such device
eth1: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device

So, is this fixable or should I send my pineapple back so I can get another one?

I kind of doubt this is an issue with the WiFi Pineapple TETRA, as you were able to ping. What is the output of ifconfig -a with the TETRA plugged in?

You guys need to update the firmware recovery instructions on the faq page:


root@unix-Latitude-E6320:/home/unix# ifconfig eth1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up

the IP address should be 192.168.1.2.

Thanks, I have resolved the typo!

Thanks that worked this time, but after that when I browsed to 192.168.1.1 and tried to upload the firmware image, it disconnected me and prompted me with a dialog box that said "Authentication Required", and underneath it said "A username and password are being requested by http://192.168.1.1. The site says: "RT-N12B1" ". Has anybody gotten that before, what's the password? What should I do now?

That is the router (home router, office, whatever) you are connected to. It must be on the same subnet. Disconnect from any other network (ethernet, wifi, whatever) and try again. This is definitely not an issue with the WiFi Pineapple :)

Ok, so I tried doing it while disconnected, went through the procedure, browsed to 192.168.1.1, then when I clicked on update firmware, firefox took me to a page that said "Offline mode"  "Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web.". What did I do wrong this time?
