Deez Nuts Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Has Hak5 fixed all the MK7 install issues yet? It is ridiculous that the product ships from China with a non-functioning operating system. Upon opening the package, the consumer is immediately tasked with installing glitchy firmware, pressing crappy plastic buttons and downloading update files, in hopes of getting the brick operational. I never got the brick operational after reading all the documentation and spending 15 hours of time over the course of a couple weeks attempting every type of install. Ridiculous and infuriating. I understand the need for upgrades but to ship the product without properly functioning software is unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lefty Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Problem: "can't verify device" on screen where you either quick press button or hold for 4 seconds Hey I just had this problem too after updating my Pineapple VII from 1.0 to 1.1.1.While connected to my WiFi AP "Pineapple_XXXX", I turned off Auto-Join on my primary WiFi AP. Then I held the button for 4 seconds and was able to verify device. On Mac to turn of Auto-Join go to System Preferences >> Network >> WiFi >> Advanced >> selected primary AP (not Pineapple), uncheck Auto-Join. Now when you hold the button for 4 seconds it should allow you to click the verify button. Don't forget to turn Auto-join on again for primary AP. Not sure if this a problem on Windows too but it has a similar "Connect Automatically" setting on AP's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deez Nuts Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Asking a consumer to hold a cheap plastic button for 4 secs to install basic firmware is a complete disgrace in 2022. Hak5 needs to come up with a 21st Century software install for its products. Treating its customers like Neanderthals is getting old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babayaro Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Hey guys, Faced same issue, tried more than 5 hours but didn't work. wifi connection lost every time when I press the button. Then I've tried with the usb-c connection instead of wireless.. Use static address for wifi pineapple https://docs.hak5.org/wifi-pineapple/setup/connecting-to-the-wifi-pineapple-on-linux Then, you can press the verify button Worked for me. FYI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reboq Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 To solve this problem just use a higher Watt prowersupply. The reason that the light goes out is due to lake of power. i used an iPhone USB-C adapter that got the error. Then i used a Nintendo Switch adapter and worked as the manual says.
