rpi and piratebox

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.
Never mind ----- I found the lines to edit in piratebox.conf -----



This is a great project. I am using an alpha awus036nha on a usb hub works
on reboot.

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


Update: I tested an alfa awus036nhr and the ap failed to come online
havent looked into the reasons as I just switched back to the aws036nha

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

okay I had a chance again to test the awus036nhr

iw list just says nl80211 not found

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.
