Doesn't work with Raspberry 3B #27

Open OfflineVIP opened 7 years ago

OfflineVIP commented 7 years ago

I have installed RaspiPass on a Raspberry 3B, but it doen't seem to work. The system boots up without any errors and the web interface is reachable, but it doesn't create any Wifi network... Any ideas what I can do?

Thank you

Fabian

This was posted back in August. Is development dead?

You have 20% chance that the AP is on Go to the page http://raspipass/#logs and verifiy that the line is sometimes : 

Running random check with 20% chance...
Random check passed - bringing up AP.

If you have the lines bottom, the AP is off, until next try : 

Running random check with 20% chance...
Random check did not pass - not raising an access point this time.

I set the chance to 100%, but even with that it doesn't work... I can see "bringing up AP" in the logs, but nothing happens. Do you also use a Raspberry 3B?

dem1980 commented 6 years ago

Yes i'm using RPI3 with the builtin wifi. Do you have connected the ethernet cable to your network to activate internet ? Your computer or your cell phone can see the AP "attwifi" (generally) with wifi ? What do you have in the "Log" page ?

OfflineVIP commented 6 years ago

Yes, it's connected and it gets a proper IP address. I cannot see any Wifi with any device. It just doesn't create a wireless network. There were no errors in the log, as I remember (my last test was about 3 months before). I will test it again and post the results here.

I tested it again and this time it works so far, that it raises the Wifis (e.g. attwifi). The 3DS recognizes and connects to the network and says, that it has an internet connection. But thats not true, because it doesn't work with the browser, the N-Zone is not flashing and I don't get any Streetpass visits. Perhaps it's a port forwarding problem of my router or something like that? Do you know the used ports? Sorry for my bad English (I am from Germany). I hope, you can understand it though.

Hi. I tried to install it in a Raspberry pi 3 B. Sometimes I get to the command line where it asks for a password, but I don't get any network or web interface and after a while the Raspberry just restarts.

Any clues on what I might be doing wrong? I followed the instruction and I was expecting it to work without any issues.

Best regards, Ricardo Carvalho

I can safely report it is working fine on a vanilla Raspberry Pi 3 B with a standard Kingston 4GB SD card.

There are some simple test to make sure it's working:

  1. Remove all other SSID on your 3DS.

  2. Turn on the Pi and visit http://raspipass/

  3. Change the probabilty to 100% and Save.

  4. Switch to the AP tab and remove ALL of the MAC address in the AP list (save it somewhere in Notepad or so). Just add the one true prime MAC address as given by http://homepass.info/ with this single line:

    attwifi,4E:53:50:4F:4F:46

  5. Save. Reboot.

Turn on your 3DS and you should be getting streetpass pretty soon (even at the point of this writing). Once verifiying the setup is actually working, you can choose to add back the original MAC list and reset the probability value. I'm using a smaller set of MAC address since the ones in homepass.info is sufficient enough.

@HalF75 Then it is actually working. You can check the username and password to access the device at the main page. You can access the configuration page via http://raspipass/

@OfflineVIP It's not suppose to allow any other internet connection due to security reason of having an open WiFi network laying around. Only StreetPass connection.
