@ -10,96 +10,39 @@ The following describes how to setup a Wi-Fi connection on the default pikvm bui
|
|||
|
||||
1. Make filesystem writable using `rw` command.
|
||||
|
||||
2. *Optional:* If you want your Raspberry Pi to automatically connect to any configured and available Wi-Fi networks you have to set the following option. On Raspberry Pis `wlan0` is the default name of the wlan device.
|
||||
2. Create Wi-Fi settings file `/etc/systemd/network/wlan0.network` with following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# systemctl enable netctl-auto@wlan0.service
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
[Match]
|
||||
Name=$WIFI_IFACE
|
||||
|
||||
[Network]
|
||||
DHCP=yes
|
||||
DNSSEC=no
|
||||
|
||||
# Use same IP by forcing to use MAC address for clientID
|
||||
[DHCP]
|
||||
ClientIdentifier=mac
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Create Wi-Fi profiles
|
||||
|
||||
* **Using the interactive dialog**
|
||||
|
||||
You can create Wi-Fi profiles either manually or by using `wifi-menu`. This requires the Wi-Fi you want to connect to in signal range.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# wifi-menu -o
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `-o` makes sure that the Wi-Fi passphrase is stored encrypted. Otherwise it will be stored in cleartext in the profile file. `wifi-menu` will scan for all available Wi-Fi networks and provide you a list:
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="wifi-1.png" />
|
||||
|
||||
Select the Wi-Fi you want to connect to and give the profile file a name. The default name is `wlan0-wifiname`:
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="wifi-2.png" />
|
||||
|
||||
Enter the WPA-Passphrase:
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="wifi-3.png" />
|
||||
|
||||
Afterwards `wifi-menu` will try to connect to the Wi-Fi. If you're connected via ssh or the Web Terminal you'll loose connection to the Raspberry Pi. Most DHCP servers will give the Raspberry Pi a new (and usually different) IP address for each interface (LAN / WLAN).
|
||||
|
||||
If everything worked out you should be connected to your Wi-Fi now. `wifi-menu` created a new profile file for you in */etc/netctl*.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Manually**
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to store the Wi-Fi passphrase encrypted you have to generate it via `wpa_passphrase`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# wpa_passphrase wifiname this_is_my_great_and_secure_key_1234567890
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<img src="wifi-4.png" />
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the second hexadecimal string without `psk=`. In this example `814c45d0f88f60636532b034c463639a506670f8ba3c7965e62cdbc1989f6d66`.
|
||||
|
||||
Create a new file with the editor of your choice (nano, vim, etc.):
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# nano /etc/netctl/wlan0-wifiname
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Copy the following template into the file and modify it with your parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
Note the `\"` after `Key=` is required for encrypted passphrases. If you want to put your Wi-Fi passphrase in cleartext the \\" is not required. See [this](https://github.com/joukewitteveen/netctl/blob/master/docs/netctl.profile.5.txt) for the quoting rules and more Wi-Fi profile configuration options.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Description='My great Wi-Fi'
|
||||
Interface=wlan0
|
||||
Connection=wireless
|
||||
Security=wpa
|
||||
ESSID=wifiname
|
||||
IP=dhcp
|
||||
Key=\"814c45d0f88f60636532b034c463639a506670f8ba3c7965e62cdbc1989f6d66
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Save the file and you're good to go. You can manually connect to the profile you've just created with:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# netctl-auto switch-to wlan0-wifiname
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. To add the hidden ESSID you need to edit `/etc/netctl/wlan0-<SSID>` file and add the hidden option:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Description='Hidden SSID template'
|
||||
Interface=wlan0
|
||||
Connection=wireless
|
||||
Security=wpa
|
||||
ESSID=WIFI-Name
|
||||
IP=dhcp
|
||||
Key=supersecretpassword
|
||||
Hidden=yes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. *Optional:* If you want to connect to a 5GHz Wi-Fi in the US and it's not listed, create `/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf` with a single line `country=US`, and enable it with:
|
||||
3. Set network ESSID and password:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# systemctl enable wpa_supplicant@wlan0
|
||||
# wpa_passphrase MyNetwork "P@assw0rd" > /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. Make filesystem read-only again using `ro` command
|
||||
!!! note "Using Wi-Fi with hidden ESSID"
|
||||
Add option `scan_ssid=1` to `/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf`
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note "Using 5GHz Wi-Fi in the USA"
|
||||
Add option `country=US` to `/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf`
|
||||
|
||||
4. Enable WPA-supplicant service:
|
||||
```
|
||||
systemctl enable "wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service"
|
||||
```
|
||||
