Re: Noobish question, RPi with External Router

Why does the custom image seem broken? Will it be fixed?
View ArticleRe: Installations HowTo - Raspberry
Because a lot of people reported that the system won't boot with the recent image. When will it be fixed? I'll create a new image, after PirateBox 1.0 is released... and that is waiting for finishing...

To run the PirateBox on RaspberryPI without Wifi: Is it crutial to do the modifications before starting it the first time? If yes, why?
View ArticleRe: Installations HowTo - Raspberry
About those modifications: piratebox.conf: DO_IFCONFIG="yes" DO_IW="no" USE_APN="no" # The following can be set to no, too. Depends if the device shouldn't be a DHCP & DNS Server (no redirect to...
View ArticleRe: Installations HowTo - Raspberry
Yes it is cruital to change the piratebox.conf , because if you don't have a wifi card attached, the setup of the interface will fail and no webserver and other things are started beyond that point....

So, this works even with a Raspberry Piratebox, that has been used with a USB-Wifi adapter before. "Before starting the piratebox first time…" sounds to me like the piratebox has to be virgin for this...

You are welcome. No, it only points out, if you don't change the settings before you boot it up first, you may get a not properly running system. That's all :) Have fun! regards Matthias

Will the Kareha-forum, the Fix for IOS 7 (http://forum.daviddarts.com/read.php?9,8927) and this frontend (https://github.com/dsbrooks/PirateBox-FrontEnd) work on the Raspberry Piratebox? And do you...

Yes, yes, and yes. @time , no not yet. Sorry... I'm quite busy. If you are familiar with working on linux command line, you can create an image using my small written howto: [github.com] regards Matthias

Hey there, I tried to make a PirateBox out of my Raspberry Pi, but I encountered a problem: The network doesn't show up although the Raspberry tells me that he did setup everything fine for wlan0 (the...

Hi, QuoteAnother idea I had was using the TR-702N mini router as a WiFi adapter thing. I had no success. This is possible. You have to change in piratebox.conf on your RPi the following lines:...

Thank you! But I already gave up the idea of using my Raspberry Pi for the PirateBox. It's simply too annoying. On the other hand I managed to get the PirateBox working on my MR3020 only some minutes...
View ArticleRe: Fix for Alfa external WiFi antenna? Alternative: TR-702N mini router (?)
nope, beside soldering an antenna , the mr3020 is very limited. Why is it anoying? Well, if you had used a recommended wifi-adapter from my list, you would have had no problems....

It was quite annoying because it didn't really work with the Raspberry Pi. I had that antenna lieing around, so I thought I give it a try. I wanted to build it with the things I have because I already...
View ArticleRe: Fix for Alfa external WiFi antenna? Alternative: TR-702N mini router (?)
