This repo contains various scripts to configure for Raspberry Pi. They can also be used with other Linux distributions by making slight changes.
If you want to make your raspberry pi a router or something than you won't have to spent days to make it work. You just have to grab right recipe and put it in correct place and install few basic packages.
First of all, make sure you have install dnsmasq because it the backbone of most of the recipes.
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install dnsmasq
List of all recipes with decriptions
-
wifi-to-eth-route.sh - Share Raspberry WiFi with the device on Lan side. Give WiFi access to a Non-WiFi device.
-
eth-to-wifi-route.sh - Make it WiFi Router.
Download anyone one of it on to Raspberry. Place it at /home/pi/.
Open up /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart file
nano /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
Add the last line :
@lxpanel --profile LXDE-pi
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE-pi
@xscreensaver -no-splash
@point-rpi
sudo bash /home/pi/wifi-to-eth-route.sh
Make sure you give full path to the file. And you're done. Now reboot to see the changes
sudo reboot
There are few things which can't be automated and has to be done manually. Below are some tutorials to help you get things done
When you have written the Image file on to the SD Card. Mount the boot partition and create a file named ssh.
Eject the card. Start the Raspberry Pi. You will be able to have SSH connection to it.
After boot the /boot/ssh file gets deleted automatically. So, type this to start ssh service on every boot.
sudo systemctl enable ssh
Connect to RPi through SSH by providing it Ethernet. If you don't any Lan cable lying around than plug the SD card into PC. Mount the second partition of the SD Card.
WiFi connections are stored at /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf. Edit this file with root priviliege
sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
It should look like this after filling network details
country=GB
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="Home WiFi"
psk="password_goes_here"
}
