To create a WPA-secured network, edit the file /etc/hostapd/nf (create it if it doesn't exist) and add the following lines: A secure network is recommended to prevent unauthorized use and tampering, but you can also create an open network. You can create an open network, or a WPA-secured network. If the line "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" is not present, add the above lines to the bottom of the file.Ĭhange the lines (they probably won't all be next to each other): To set this up automatically on boot, edit the file /etc/network/interfaces and replace the line "iface wlan0 inet dhcp" to: You will need to give the Pi a static IP address with the following command: Opt lease 864000 # 10 day DHCP lease time in secondsĮdit the file /etc/default/udhcpd and change the line: Opt router 192.168.42.1 # The Pi's IP address on wlan0 which we will set up shortly. Opt dns 8.8.8.8 4.2.2.2 # The DNS servers client devices will use. Interface wlan0 # The device uDHCP listens on. Start 192.168.42.2 # This is the range of IPs that the hostspot will give to client devices. Edit the file /etc/nf and configure it like this: The following steps were performed on Raspbian but should be much the same on any Debian-based distro.Ģ.
