Simple AP setup & WiFi management for Debian-based devices
--- About ---
RaspAP is feature-rich wireless router software that just works on many popular Debian-based devices, including the Raspberry Pi. Our popular Quick installer creates a known-good default configuration in minutes on all current Raspberry Pis with onboard wireless.
--- Quick start ---
Start with a clean install of the latest release of Raspberry Pi OS Lite. Both the 32- and 64-bit release versions are supported. The Raspberry Pi OS Desktop distro is currently unsupported.
Tip
Be sure to use an official power supply with your device. Power supply requirements differ by Raspberry Pi model. Inadequate voltage is the source of many WiFi issues.
Update RPi OS to its latest version, including the kernel and firmware, followed by a reboot:
Code TEXT :
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get full-upgrade sudo reboot
Set the WiFi country in raspi-config's Localisation Options:
sudo raspi-config.
Important
Failure to perform this step will prevent the RPi from enabling wireless operation. When this happens, you will see the warning
Wi-Fi is currently blocked by rfkillin the console.
Install RaspAP from your device's shell prompt:
Code BASH :
curl -sL https://install.raspap.com | bash
The Quick installer will complete the steps in the manual installation for you.
After the reboot at the end of the installation the wireless AP network will be configured as follows:
IP address: 10.3.141.1
Username: admin
Password: secret
DHCP range: 10.3.141.50 to 10.3.141.254
SSID:
raspi-webgui
Password: ChangeMe
Your AP's basic settings and many advanced options are now ready to be modified by RaspAP.
Tip
If this is not a clean install or you are configuring a device with a non-standard integration it's strongly recommended to follow the manual installation instructions.
