Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB) 8.2 pre-releases are thoroughly tested, and can be installed from this page! Please read our DRAFT IIAB 8.2 Release Notes.

To install IIAB 8.2 onto Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu 24.04+, Linux Mint 22+ or Debian 12+, simply run this 1-line installer:

curl iiab.io/install.txt | bash

On a Raspberry Pi, WE RECOMMEND YOU INSTALL THE LATEST RASPBERRY PI OS (64-bit is recommended), using their detailed instructions if necessary. WARNING: THE NOOBS OS IS *NOT* SUPPORTED, as its partitioning is very different. To attempt an IIAB install onto a non-supported Linux distribution (AT YOUR OWN RISK) see also the manual/legacy instructions.

An Ethernet cable is highly recommended during installation. This is more reliable AND allows an internal IIAB hotspot to be set up without confusion. WARNING: IF YOU CONNECT YOUR IIAB'S INTERNAL WI-FI TO THE INTERNET OVER 5 GHz, YOU'LL PREVENT OLDER LAPTOPS/PHONES/TABLETS (WHICH REQUIRE 2.4 GHz) FROM CONNECTING TO YOUR IIAB'S INTERNAL HOTSPOT. For AP+STA mode, set "wifi_up_down: True" in /etc/iiab/local_vars.yml (example).

Thanks For Building Your Own Library To Serve One & All
