It has been configured for a dynamic IP address, and you might not want this. It is called wlan0-SSID where the SSID part of the name is the name of the network you connected to. The wifi-menu utility has created a new profile for your WiFi link. You should now be connected to the internet which you can check, as before, by pinging 8.8.8.8 to see if the connection is talking to the internet and then ping to ensure that you have name resolution too. If the network is not protected – you are asking for trouble!Īfter a pause, you will get the shell prompt back again. Type it in and press return to accept it.

If the network is password protected, you will be prompted for the password. Use the arrow keys to move up and down the list of networks until you have highlighted the desired one. Follow the router’s instructions if you need to make changes. Eventually, a list of available networks will be displayed – if yours is not showing, make sure that your wireless router is broadcasting the SSID. The last parameter is a lower case letter o, not a zero.Īfter a short delay, you will see a message telling you that the system is “scanning for networks”.
Make sure your WiFi dongle is plugged in and then: Setting up a WiFi access is just as simple as setting up the Wired access, actually, it’s easier as there is a utility that helps out. If the prompt is ‘ $‘ then that runs as your normal ‘pi’ user – which we created last time. Time to move on.Īs before, if you see a command with a ‘ #‘ prompt it means that you should be in the root user, or have prefixed the command with sudo. We have internet connection vie a wired Ethernet connection using either a dynamic IP address or a Static one. In the previous posting, we managed to set up our locales, languages, keyboards, and so on. This is the second blog post on the subject. Continuing with the setting up and such like, using Arch Linux on the Raspberry Pi.
