| | |
| Connecting a USB wifi dongle (that supports Soft-AP) to the AXIOM Beta USB port allows controlling the camera via wireless connection
| |
| | |
| Check your wifi card:
| |
| ifconfig
| |
| | |
| Turn on wifi card:
| |
| ifconfig wlan0 up
| |
| | |
| Search wifi essid/hotspot name:
| |
| iwlist wlan0 scan
| |
| | |
| Setting up Essid and password:
| |
| | |
| WEP
| |
| iwconfig wlan0 essid "yourhotspotname" key yourpassword
| |
| | |
| ASCII
| |
| iwconfig wlan0 essid "yourhotspotname" key s:asciikey
| |
| | |
| WPA2 (tested and working)
| |
| update mirrors database (it is required to connect to the Internet via Ethernet):
| |
| pacman -Syy
| |
| | |
| install wpa_supplicant:
| |
| pacman -S wpa_supplicant
| |
| | |
| Configuration with wpa_passphrase - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/WPA_supplicant
| |
| create basic configuration file
| |
| MYSSID = name of your wireless network
| |
| passphrase = password to connect to your wireless network
| |
| wpa_passphrase MYSSID passphrase > /etc/wpa_supplicant/example.conf
| |
| | |
| ip link set dev wlan0 up
| |
| | |
| wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/example.conf
| |
| if nl80211 driver does not support the given hardware. The deprecated wext driver might still support the device:
| |
| wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/example.conf
| |
| | |
| dhcpcd wlan0
| |
| | |
| Autostart connect https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/netctl
| |
| copy config from example:
| |
| cp /etc/netctl/example/wireless-wpa /etc/netctl/wireless-wpa
| |
| | |
| edit the config for you network (interface/ESSID/key):
| |
| nano /etc/netctl/wireless-wpa
| |
| | |
| First manually check that the profile can be started successfully with:
| |
| netctl start wireless-wpa
| |
| If the above command results in a failure, then use
| |
| journalctl -xn
| |
| netctl status profile
| |
| to obtain a more in depth explanation of the failure. (profile might already been started)
| |
| | |
| Enable:
| |
| netctl enable wireless-wpa
| |
| | |
| This will create and enable a systemd service that will start when the computer boots. Changes to the profile file will not propagate to the service file automatically. After such changes, it is necessary to reenable the profile:
| |
| netctl reenable wireless-wpa
| |
