Readme

This install file configures your Raspberrypi 3 Model B as a Wifi-Access Point (AP) by sharing the incoming internet connection on eth0 on the wlan0 device (internal WiFi Chip on the new Pi).

Goal

Setup your Raspberrypi 3 as a WiFi Access Point (or Router) to share your ethernet connection with friends and family as a nice take-it-with-you WiFi Network.

Environment

This script was tested on

• Raspberry-Pi 3 Model B
• No additonal HW connected
• Rasbian GBU/Linux 8 (cat /etc/issue) and Debian version 8.0 (cat /etc/debian_version)
• No changes made to the configuration so far

Installing

git clone https://github.com/sebastianzillessen/WiFi-AP-Raspberry-Pi-3.git
cd WiFi-AP-Raspberry-Pi-3
sudo su
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh

Your can specify the following parameters when calling ./install.sh:

1. SSID (default: WiFiAPi )
2. PASSPHRASE(default: Raspberrypi)
3. IP_RANGE (default: 192.168.1, produces IP of Pi with 192.168.1.1)
4. Incoming Internet connection device (default: eth0)
5. WiFi Connection Device (default: wlan0)

These are parsed in the order. So with

./install.sh TestAP test123

You would setup your Raspberrypi with a SSID TestAp and a Password test123.

NOTE: As the script runs an update of all installed software at the beginning, it might take some time. So be patient!

Feel free to modify it.
