ironmike Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 After the setup, pineapple asks you to load the browser page, which is looking for a root pwd. Which pwd is that? The one from your Kali box or is there some other pwd? What would that be? I cannot load the bulletins when I use my Kali boxes' pwd. Please help, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theUNK0WN Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 It's the password you've inputted after setting up the pineapple ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hmm, forgive me for being a newbie, but I don't recall inputting a pwd at all. That's part of my confusion. I downloaded the .sh file, changed the permissions on it, and ran it in a shell. After that process completes, it's when I am asked for the pwd. So, I don't recall giving it any pwds. Even if I reinstalled it again, I don't know where I would input a pwd. Could you give me more details as to when this is done?

If you have forgotten it you may re-flash the firmware and complete the initial configuration again. Are you trying this on an actual wifi pineapple or a raspberry pi or something else? ?

b0N3z Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 just hold the reset button on the bottom for 7 seconds and reset the firmware, youll be prompted with a setup page and the password you use at the very top is the password for the webui and ssh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Dear Just_a_User, I've been watching Darren Kitchen's videos on how to set up the Pineapple. I don't recall anything about a firmware flash. Yes, this is a new Pineapple. Are there any videos that you recommend that cover the firmware flash, so that I can follow your directions? Thanks much, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Dear b0N3z, Thanks for your reply. Does holding down the button actually do the firmware flash, or is there a separate procedure for doing that? As you can see, I am very new to this.

ironmike Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 Dear Just_a_User, I am using a Pineapple Nano on a Kali Linux box. Is there something special to do to assign or fetch the root password? I don't recall setting a root pwd in the beginning of the setup and hence don't recall what I used. Do I need to reflash as other as suggesting? Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 So, I read the steps needed to reflash the nano. I am confused by one issue. It says: Next, follow these steps to access the recovery web interface and update the firmware. Unplug the WiFi Pineapple completely from all power sources. Begin holding the RESET button on the device. With the RESET button held, power on the device." My WiFi Pineapple doesn't have any power source. The unit plugs into a USB port, and then there is that Y cord that connects to two other USB ports. So, I am unclear whether I just ignore that or am I missing something? Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your nano power source could be a wall charger, battery bank, or pc/laptop. As you want to transfer data (firmware) to the nano you need to use the PC/Laptop as power source. The Y lead should be used to guarantee the nano is getting enough power from a laptop that maybe cant supply enough power over 1x USB port. Hold power of while plugging the pineapple into your laptop/PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironmike Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 I followed these directions but I am not getting the browser page to load: Firmware Recovery The WiFi Pineapple features a firmware recovery option which allows the user to restore the device to a factory firmware image. This procedure is performed via a special web interface. Begin by downloading the factory firmware image for your device. WiFi Pineapple NANO Factory Firmware Image - SHA256: a40f0d790369a3490bcd271f89201460282c34a4f530aa7261f0cb4d45ab2c40 WiFi Pineapple TETRA Factory Firmware Image - SHA256: 30fa9e83494593972750a254c706f1be329e4af4265629e1177015b764d27ae6 Next, follow these steps to access the recovery web interface and update the firmware. Unplug the WiFi Pineapple completely from all power sources. Begin holding the RESET button on the device. With the RESET button held, power on the device. Continue holding the RESET button for 10 seconds, then release. NANO: The blue LED will remain solid TETRA: The yellow LED will remain solid Connect the host PC to the WiFi Pineapple via the USB Ethernet Port NANO: The male USB A plug TETRA: The Micro USB port labeled ETH 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 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up (where eth1 is the interface name of the WiFi Pineapple). From the host PC, browse to http://192.168.1.1 Click Choose File and select the factory firmware image downloaded above. Click Update Firmware. This process will take several minutes. Do not interrupt the power supply while the firmware is updating. Once complete, the WiFi Pineapple will restart. Reset the the WiFi Pineapple facing USB Ethernet interface back to DHCP or 172.16.42.42 with netmask 255.255.255.0 When I tried to load http://192.168.1.1/, the browser gives an error message, "Unable to load." What am i doing wrong?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
