===== Sparky RaspberryPi Wifi =====
Starting from version 4-dev20171127, net wireless devices can be configured via the network-manager applet or 'nmtui' command
Sparky's RaspberryPi's WiFi is not enabled as default. To enable it do:
1. Edit the interfaces file:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
Add new lines to the file:
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
2. Scan for WiFi networks:
sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
Look out for:
ESSID:"YOUR-WIFI-NETWORK-NAME"
3. Edit the wpa_supplicant.conf file:
sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
Change:
country=GB
to your country ID.
Add to the file:
network={
ssid="YOUR-WIFI-NETWORK-NAME"
psk="YOUR-WIFI-NETWORK-PASSWORD"
}
3. Reconfigure the wpa_supplicant:
sudo wpa_cli -i wlan0 reconfigure
Verify (opcional):
sudo ifconfig wlan0
Then reboot and check your connection:
sudo ping -c 2 sparkylinux.org
