How do I connect to the Rasberry PI on Gnome3 or cli? The guide mentions ssh into 192.168.1.1 but I need to do the connect to the device before attempting to ssh or telnet.
In Gnome3, I created an Ethernet connection with address, netmask, and gateway set to 192.168.1.2, 255,255,255,0 and 192.168.1.1.
Traceroute seems to ping back to my computer
traceroute to 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
1 <name-of-my-computer> (192.168.1.2) 3068.125 ms !H 3068.102 ms !H 3068.095 ms !H
I tried the ip command and same result
ip addr add 192.168.0.1/24 dev eth0
How do I connect to the router? As you may know, I know next to nothing.
It is not necessary to assign static IP on the PC. Upon booting, OpenWrt in Raspberry will offer settings from dhcp.
I pressume that you have connected the devices by cable and the leds on the ethernet ports are blinking joyfully?
Exactly, I cannot reach the device. The Ethernet cable is physically plugged from my laptop into the raspberry pi, but the device is not connected automatically. The raspberry pi ports do not light up.
Yea, the device lights up when I connect to a switch but I tried logging into my router and connecting to my pi and it didnt work.
I will try another computer and see if it lights up tonight automatically. Do anyone knows the commands to manually connect to it? I do not have any networking experience so I am unfamiliar with the tools
Do not connect the Pi into your home network yet. Connect directly to the PC or through a switch that has nothing else plugged into it. Go to the Network Manager and set IPv4 to automatic the PI should send a DHCP IP in the 192.168.1.x range and the PI at 192.168.1.1 will be the gateway.
