FreeWifi gateway

It connects to a FreeWifi hotspot and shares the connection via a WPA2 protected Wifi network and the Ethernet port.

Hardware

It uses:

• a Raspberry Pi B model. (Yes, the old one :)) with this printed case http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:608169
• a TP-Link TL-WN722N usb dongle
• a 55cm 2.4GHz Yagi antenna connected to the wifi dongle

Software

OS

I used Raspbian Lite from September 2016.

Installation

wget https://github.com/ticapix/freewifi_gateway/archive/master.zip -O freewifi_gateway.zip
