apillaca Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Configure my pineapple with the administrator wifi and wifi clients open also connect a USB adapter compatible to give internet to the pineapple that if it works to go out to internet from the pineapple but not in the clients, these are connected to the open wifi network but these do not have output to internet. Is it necessary some routing so that the clients go out to internet by the network adapter connected to the pineapple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apillaca Posted October 13, 2022 Author Share Posted October 13, 2022 I'm with the TP-Link ue300 Realtek RTL8153 adapter and the pineapple is on firmware version 2.1.2 stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark_pyrro Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 In what way are you powering the Pineapple? Using a power adapter (such as a phone charger) or using a port on a computer? If using a computer as a power source, you will probably experience the problems you are facing since it will enable the USB-C Ethernet interface of the Pineapple and that will be the default route/gateway. If powering the Pineapple with a "dumb" power source (charger or such) then it won't set the USB-C Ethernet adapter as the default route/gateway. I'm using my Pineapple now as I'm writing this, powering it with a USB charger, connected to the open AP, Pineapple connected as a DHCP client to a network using cable and a RTL8153 USB Ethernet adapter, and it works without doing any changes. If you need to use a computer as a power source, then you will most likely have to change the default route/gateway of the Pineapple to make it work.

apillaca Posted October 13, 2022 Author Share Posted October 13, 2022 I was powering it with the computer port, now on recommendation use the 5V 2A cellular power adapter seems to still enable the Pineapple's USB-C Ethernet interface because the open network clients are still not surfing the internet. This is the ip route table and the route -n table I have: root@mk7:~# ip route default via 192.168.100.1 dev eth1 src 192.168.100.127 default via 172.16.42.42 dev br-lan metric 4096 172.16.42.0/24 dev br-lan scope link src 172.16.42.1 192.168.100.0/24 dev eth1 scope link src 192.168.100.127 root@mk7:~# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.100.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 0.0.0.0 172.16.42.42 0.0.0.0 UG 4096 0 0 br-lan 172.16.42.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 br-lan 192.168.100.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 the 192.168.100.0/24 network is the home network and the pineapple's IP is 192.168.100.127 assigned by dhcp can you provide me the routing table that you manage or what error I have?

dark_pyrro Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 That output looks correct. You probably need to check for issues outside the Pineapple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apillaca Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 I managed to change internet provider and the pineapple worked normally, the problem was outside the pineapple at the internet provider. I think the problem was in the routing on my home router. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
