Hello all. This is my first post here. I only purchased my Pi yesterday. Is there any way to configure WiFi on a pristine and brand new installation of Raspify without the albeit simple process of plugging in an Ethernet cable? I don't have one you see. This is a wireless house. I used to have boxes full of them – all the colours of the rainbow (well, grey and blue) but somewhow ended up throwing them all out. I may be flying my noob colours with carefree abandon when I ask if it is possible to simply download the required drivers / update, copy to USB and install? Any assistance appreciated.
If your WiFi card is supported you can use this: http://learn.adafruit.com/adaf…..cidentalis
Just edit /etc/network/interfaces with:
sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
Edit the file to look like so:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
allow-hotplug wlan0
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid "ssid"
wpa-psk "password"
If your card is not supported, that is unfortunately a little over my head.
Hope this helps!
