Sto eseguendo la tua guida e tutto ok fino al punto 5.

Al punto 6 dato il comando "sudo ./pifi.sh" la procedura si blocca dopo "Starting ISC DHCP server..." col seguente errore:

Cleaning up...

Starting ISC DHCP server...
Job for isc-dhcp-server.service failed because the control process exited with error code.

Come mai?

I'm running your guide and everything is OK until point 5.

At point 6 given the command "sudo ./pifi.sh" the procedure is blocked after "Starting ISC DHCP server ..." with the following error:

Thanks for the tutorial! I followed the instructions and I am able to see the wifi with other devices, but I cannot connect to it. Double checked the wifi password, everything seems to be correct. Any ideas what could have gone wrong? 

Thanks!!

I followed the instructions on RPI 2, but I am not able to see the new wifi, any idea why?

If my router is on 10.0.0.X range, Should I modify the script to setup 10.0.0.X address and not 192.168.X.X

Thanks,

mzisu

Hi Thomas, 

I use a raspberry Pi 3, and i tried to install this software, but when i 've installed pifi, my wifi stopped working.

i tried to stop pifi, to reset wifi settings, and to update my file, but it still not working.

so how can i do to resolve this problem?

i hope you'll answer me

Hello. 

The scripts are ok with the raspberry pi 2 with TP Link WN725N wireless stick. There have been some errors with the first script but after rebooting the PI, ı can easily connect to AP very well.

After the second script I have checked  my ip using ipleak.net and it has been seen TOR exit node. So it is ok,too.

Is there a vpn kill switch configuration in the script that enables the network more secure?

Thank you very much.

Kind regards.

will this work with a raspberry pi 3? Is its onboard wifi an issue? 

  Are you sure? yes | no

Alex wrote 05/16/2016 at 19:42 point

Henrik, I ran into some issues getting this set up myself (also on a Pi 3) and yes, you'll have to tweak certain things (for instance, the driver is different than the one that the linked hostapd script expects).  I followed this guide to get it set up as an access point:

Got a PI3 too ....

Thx

Hi, after launch pifi.sh and reboot, i found my wifi but after connect i have restricted access and no internet.

And i found this error in my raspy :

not running dhcpcd because :etc/network/interface

defines some interface that will use a DHCP client  ... failed

Startpar: services returned failure: isc-dhcp-server ;.. failed

If you have some ideas ... i've tested all tuto with pifi.sh and no one works. PLease help me ;)

hi , i have the same problem, i have a Edimax wifi dongle, but i think the problem is somewere else because when i check the status of the hostapd, it's not recognised , and in /etc/init.d/ it does not return any instructions after a status or start query.

greenones wrote 03/03/2016 at 00:09 point

Hi!

So I get to this part:

Follow all the instructions on the screen. The script will reboot your Pi when it is finished

After the reboot I lose all network connections :P Any suggestions?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Thomas wrote 03/03/2016 at 08:14 point

Hey!  Look at the suggestion I gave someone else in the comments
section.  It is probably the same issue.  What brand of wifi dongle are
you using?
