Raspberry Pi Forums

Hi,
this is my very first post here so please bare with me

Is it possible to hook up a WiFi adapter on one of the USB ports and get internet from the LAN port on the Pi? That way I will get internet to my TV that have no WiFi dongle and no lan cable to that spot.

Thanks,
S@

Search on "Raspberry Pi router" or "Raspberry Pi access point", which is--basically--what you want to do.

Hi W. H. Heydt,
I managed what I needed.
I needed to get my Smart TV get internet from the lan of my Raspi that has WiFi USB dongle.

Here how I managed (so someone else can get it to work).

I have OpenELEC installed on it.

SSH to it than Putty then:
1. cp /etc/connman/main.conf /storage/.config/connman_main.conf
2. nano /storage/.config/connman_main.conf
3. Then change the line: TetheringTechnologies = wifi to TetheringTechnologies = wifi,ethernet

4. REBOOT

then send:
5. connmanctl enable ethernet
6. connmanctl tether ethernet on

Here is the original post I came up: http://openelec.tv/forum/124-raspberry- ... =15#133507

Thanks for your help,
S@
