Connect Raspberry Pi to Wifi

It is fairly self explanatory to do it through the UI if there is one but to do it through the terminal all you have to do is :

  • sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
  • # Ensure it looks like
  • country=GB
    ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
    update_config=1
    
    network={
        ssid="Errigal_WiFi"
        psk="PASSWORD"
    }
  • save and exit
  • Reboot and it should connect
  • If having issues ensure your
  • sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
  • looks like
  • # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
    
    # Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd
    # For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf'
    
    # Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
    source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
    
    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback
    
    iface eth0 inet manual
    
    allow-hotplug wlan0
    iface wlan0 inet manual
        wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
    
    allow-hotplug wlan1
    iface wlan1 inet manual
        wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
