Conect Raspberry2 with cellphone over wifi

[talud08]

Hello,

I just registed in the forum and I am a beginner with the Raspberry stuff.

I have a Raspberry2 conected to my home wifi network via a wifi dongle and everything works just fine (I can surft in the internet).

However, it does not work with the cellphone wifi area. I mean, the Raspberry is conected with the cell (I can see that both in the Pi and in the cell) but I cannot surft in the internet.

Any ideas?

Thank a lot

You should post the output of these. Open a terminal and run

Code: Select all

ifconfig
route
cat /etc/resolv.conf

According to what you posted, you shouldn't have any problem connecting.

Thanks again.
The problem may be in the cellphone. I will contact the service provider.

SurferTim,
The problem was that I set a static IP that, for some reason, was not suitable.
I put a dinamic IP and it works OK.
Regards

If you need static network settings on only one ssid, you can do that in /etc/dhcpcd.conf. Replace interface with ssid.

Code: Select all

ssid MySSID
static ip_address=192.168.1.2/24
static routers=192.168.1.1
static domain_name_servers=8.8.8.8
