I installed version 0.6E on an sd for my raspberry
This works fine with the wifi key w541u
But with my USB wifi Realtek RTL8187L it well recognized
To boot (flashing LED) but the network piratebox not visible?

I believe RTL8187L does not support ap mode

The 'WIPI' adapter from cpc.co.uk works straight out of the box. Mine has FCC ID: OYR-COMFAST88 written on it.

I advise you that as a key wifi or I can solve the problem with a file?

I installed under xwindows wicd and my rtl8187 card works but not always visible PirateBox I think has a driver problem and not the wireless card you
procedure to install the native drivers?

I don't believe, that the native drivers (via ndiswrapper) are able to run in AP mode.

Greetings,

I installed this file and booted my rpi today 19apr2013 -- all good

[downloads.piratebox.de]

I have modified /opt/piratebox/piratebox.conf

to use 10.10.0.1 and changed the netmask to 255.255.0.0 for class b subnet

rebooted and I can connect. I would like dhcpd to restrict assigned addresses
to this range 10.10.0.70 to 10.10.0.80.
but havent figured out what file to edit.

This is a great project. I am using an alpha aws037aha on a usb hub

I came across your project while testing pilfs which I plan to use once
I understand all the details of setting up hostapd, dhcpd, etc.

Hi,
So the problem is the not existing wifi network?
or is it the not working dhcp service?

If wifi, please post the output of
 iw list

regards Matthias

Re: Help with index page

One thing I should mention is that I am connecting to the piratebox from an internet connected
computer over wireless so I am not using [piratebox.lan] but just the
ip address. Otherwise my dns cannot find piratebox.lan and dont want to edit hosts.

I have tried a few things to correct an error when I connect to the AP the
message text is cut and pasted below this note.

The only thing that seems to work for me consistently is to hardcode
the ip address in this file /opt/piratebox/www/index.html
change piratebox.lan to whatever ip address for the ap on line 124


Also added the AP's ip address to both /etc/hosts and /opt/piratebox/conf/hosts
as I noticed I could not ping piratebox.lan by name from a shell.

Error - [piratebox.lan]

The page 'http://piratebox.lan:8080/' couldn't be loaded.

Cannot resolve hostname (piratebox.lan)

Try again

The rokland.com web page says that kernel headers are required
I have mostly used fedora in the past including the raspberry pi
but debian is still new to me.

There should be a package containing the header files.

You should try

# sudo aptitude

This is a nice gui, which should make it easier for you searching for the correct packages.
