Nano Initial configuration

[460s]

So Noob here, with a new Wifi Pineapple Nano 

Trying to install Nano on Win 10:

New network is detectable, but I get error: 

Load Bulletins - "Error connecting to WiFiPineapple.com. Please check your connection."

tried hard reset and new install, no help.

Network settings screenshot below:

I haven't used windows in years so im just gunna throw you a couple of ideas while you wait for someone else to suggest or you find something else in the forums.

1. use the default gateway IP of your router usually something like 192.168.1.1 check yours.

2. you can also use the routers ip for DNS server or manaully enter 8.8.8.8 (google's public dns server)

Changed IPv4 settings to:

added preferred DSN 8.8.8.8

and default gateway: 172.16.42.1

172.16.42.1 is the IP of the pineapple so will conflict.

Normally on a home router its the IP you would browse to when configuring your routers wifi or changing settings so something like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1

You can usually get a clue from looking at the IP given to your wifi adapter, as an example - say it gives your wifi adapter the ip address 192.168.1.145 then its a good chance your routers IP will be 192.168.1.1 or sometimes  192.168.1.254 depending on manufacturer.

just tried Ip's:

192.168.1.1,  192.168.0.1, 192.168.1.145 and 192.168.1.245 no luck ( rebooted each time).

How can I see the given IP to the wifi adapter?

try this https://www.whatismyip.com/how-to-get-your-local-ip-address-on-windows-10/

What should I change to?

So I get this:

Ethernet adapter PineApple:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
   Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::854c:be4d:4497:9368%7
   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 172.16.42.42
   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.245

Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
   Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::b9a2:3f89:23cd:891a%15
   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.120.61
   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

try gateway address of 192.168.120.138

Unusual, what network you on?

[460s]

not sure, as far as I know its office wifi with a firewall.

I can also login to another network  , then I get defalut gateway: 10.0.0.138

Best ask your IT dept, you could have a web proxy.

Lol trial runs of devices such as the pineapple on an enterprise network may be frowned upon if not explicitly outlined as a no no in your user agreement. Fyi

So now i'm connected to a different network and still get error to load bulletins, looks like this:

1. Make sure your testing this in networks you own or have permission to use a pineapple on. Seriously.

2. Try default gateway 192.168.252.1 (its a poor quality screen shot but i think thats what it says)
