Re: Ubuntu Server Wireless Setup - WPA2 Personal - Airport Extream
The usual method in a server is to complete the details in /etc/network/interfaces something like this:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static <---you did want to be able to find it, ftp, ssh, etc., correct?
address 192.168.1.101 <---an address outside the DHCP range in the router
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
wpa-ssid <your_network>
wpa-psk <your key>
dns-nameservers 192.168.1.1 8.8.8.8
Then restart the interface:
Code:
sudo ifdown wlan0 && sudo ifup wlan0
Did it get the x.101 address?Can you reach the world?
Code:
ping -c3 www.google.com
Of course, your details will be different.
Post back if it doesn't go perfectly.
