RaspAP lets you quickly get a wireless access point up and running to share the connectivity of many popular [Debian-based devices](#supported-operating-systems), including the Raspberry Pi. Our popular [Quick installer](#quick-installer) creates a known-good default configuration that "just works" on all current Raspberry Pis with onboard wireless. A responsive interface gives you control over the relevant services and networking options. Advanced DHCP settings, OpenVPN client support, SSL, security audits, themes and multilingual options are included.
|
||||
|
||||
RaspAP has been featured on sites such as [Instructables](http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-As-Completely-Wireless-Router/), [Adafruit](https://blog.adafruit.com/2016/06/24/raspap-wifi-configuration-portal-piday-raspberrypi-raspberry_pi/), [Raspberry Pi Weekly](https://www.raspberrypi.org/weekly/commander/) and [Awesome Raspberry Pi](https://project-awesome.org/thibmaek/awesome-raspberry-pi) and implemented in countless projects.
|
||||
|
||||
We hope you enjoy using RaspAP as much as we do creating it. Tell us how you use this with [your own projects](https://github.com/raspap/raspap-awesome).
|
||||
Welcome to RaspAP Insiders. You, the members of the Insiders community, support the sponsorware release strategy, which means that new features are first exclusively released to sponsors as part of Insiders. Read on for details about how this strategy works—and *thank you for joining us on this journey*.

## Prerequisites
|
||||
Start with a clean install of the [latest release of Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) Lite](https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/operating-systems/#raspberry-pi-os-32-bit). The Raspberry Pi OS desktop and 64-bit beta distros are unsupported.
|
||||
## How sponsorship works
|
||||
New features first land in Insiders, which means that *sponsors will have access to them immediately*. Every feature is tied to a funding goal in monthly subscriptions. When a funding goal is hit, the features that are tied to it are merged back into the [public RaspAP repository](https://github.com/RaspAP/raspap-webgui) and released for general availability. Bugfixes and minor enhancements are always released simultaneously in both editions.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update Raspbian, including the kernel and firmware, followed by a reboot:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt-get update
|
||||
sudo apt-get full-upgrade
|
||||
sudo reboot
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Set the "WLAN country" option in `raspi-config`'s **Localisation Options**: `sudo raspi-config`
|
||||
Don't want to sponsor? No problem, RaspAP already has tons of features available, so chances are that most of your requirements are already satisfied. See the list of [exclusive features](#exclusive-features) to learn which features are currently only available to sponsors.
|
||||
|
||||
3. If you have a device without an onboard wireless chipset, the [**Edimax Wireless 802.11b/g/n nano USB adapter**](https://www.edimax.com/edimax/merchandise/merchandise_detail/data/edimax/global/wireless_adapters_n150/ew-7811un) is an excellent option – it's small, cheap and has good driver support.
|
||||
## About your sponsorship
|
||||
Your sponsorship is through your individual or organization's GitHub account. By visiting [**RaspAP's sponsor profile**](), you may change your sponsorship tier or cancel your sponsorship anytime. <sup>[1](#footnote-1)</sup>
|
||||
|
||||
With the prerequisites done, you can proceed with either the Quick installer or Manual installation steps below.
|
||||
As part of the initial rollout of Insiders, all previous one-time backers of RaspAP on GitHub, PayPal or [Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/raspap) will receive unlimited access to Insiders. This is a small gesture for those early financial supporters who recognized the potential of this project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick installer
|
||||
Install RaspAP from your device's shell prompt:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
curl -sL https://install.raspap.com | bash
|
||||
```
|
||||
The [installer](https://docs.raspap.com/quick/) will complete the steps in the manual installation (below) for you.
|
||||
|
||||
After the reboot at the end of the installation the wireless network will be
|
||||
configured as an access point as follows:
|
||||
* IP address: 10.3.141.1
|
||||
* Username: admin
|
||||
* Password: secret
|
||||
* DHCP range: 10.3.141.50 to 10.3.141.255
|
||||
* SSID: `raspi-webgui`
|
||||
* Password: ChangeMe
|
||||
**Important**: If you're sponsoring [RaspAP](https://github.com/RaspAP/sponsors) through a GitHub organization, please send a short email to [sponsors@raspap.com](mailto:sponsors@raspap.com) with the name of your organization and the account that should be added as a collaborator. <sup>[2](#footnote-2)</sup>
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** As the name suggests, the Quick Installer is a great way to quickly setup a new AP. However, it does not automagically detect the unique configuration of your system. Best results are obtained by connecting to ethernet (`eth0`) or as a WiFi client, also known as managed mode, with `wlan0`. For the latter, refer to [this FAQ](https://docs.raspap.com/faq/#headless). Special instructions for the Pi Zero W are [available here](https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta/).
|
||||
## Exclusive features
|
||||
When backers were asked which feature they'd most like to see added to RaspAP, the ability to manage multiple OpenVPN client configurations topped the list of requests. Therefore, we're adding this as the first feature exclusive to insiders.
|
||||
|
||||
Please [read this](https://docs.raspap.com/issues/) before reporting an issue.
|
||||
✅ Manage OpenVPN client configs
|
||||
|
||||
## Ad Blocking
|
||||
This feature uses DNS blacklisting to block requests for ads, trackers and other undesirable hosts. To enable ad blocking, simply respond to the prompt during the installation. As a beta release, we encourage testing and feedback from users of RaspAP.
|
||||
We feel that using input from our Insiders to drive the development of this project is a great approach. Look for the list above to grow as we add more exlcusive features. Have an idea or suggestion for a future enhancement? Start or join an [Insiders discussion](/discussions) and let us know!
|
||||
|
||||
Details are [provided here](https://docs.raspap.com/adblock/).
|
||||
## Funding targets
|
||||
Following is a list of funding targets. When a funding target is reached, the features that are tied to it are merged back into RaspAP and released to the public for general availability.
|
||||
|
||||
## Bridged AP
|
||||
By default RaspAP configures a routed AP for your clients to connect to. A bridged AP configuration is also possible. Slide the **Bridged AP mode** toggle under the **Advanced** tab of **Configure hotspot**, then save and restart the hotspot.
|
||||
### $500
|
||||
✅ Manage OpenVPN client configs
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Frequently asked questions
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** In bridged mode, all routing capabilities are handled by your upstream router. Because your router assigns IP addresses to your device's hotspot and its clients, you might not be able to reach the RaspAP web interface from the default `10.3.141.1` address. Instead use your RPi's hostname followed by `.local` to access the RaspAP web interface. With Raspbian default settings, this should look like `raspberrypi.local`. Alternate methods are [discussed here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/ip-address.md).
|
||||
### Terms
|
||||
*We're using RaspAP to for a commercial project. Can we use Insiders under the same terms and conditions?*
|
||||
|
||||
More information on Bridged AP mode is provided [in our documentation](https://docs.raspap.com/bridged/).
|
||||
Yes. Whether you're an individual or a company, you may use RaspAP Insiders precisely under the same terms as RaspAP, which are defined by the GNU GPL 3.0 license. However, we kindly ask you to respect the following guidelines:
|
||||
|
||||
## Simultaneous AP and Wifi client
|
||||
RaspAP lets you create an AP with a Wifi client configuration, often called [AP-STA mode](https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta/). With your system configured in managed mode, enable the AP from the **Advanced** tab of **Configure hotspot** by sliding the **Wifi client AP mode** toggle. Save settings and start the hotspot. The managed mode AP is functional without restart.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** This option is disabled until you configure your system as a wireless client. For a device operating in [managed mode](https://docs.raspap.com/faq/#headless) without an `eth0` connection, this configuration must be enabled [_before_ a reboot](https://docs.raspap.com/ap-sta/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Support us
|
||||
RaspAP is free software, but powered by your support. If you find RaspAP useful for your personal or commercial projects, [become a GitHub sponsor](https://github.com/sponsors/RaspAP/) or join the project on [Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/RaspAP). Either of these options makes a big difference!
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual installation
|
||||
Detailed manual setup instructions are provided [on our documentation site](https://docs.raspap.com/manual/).
|
||||
|
||||
## 802.11ac 5GHz support
|
||||
RaspAP provides an 802.11ac wireless mode option for supported hardware (currently the RPi 3B+/4 and compatible Orange Pi models) and wireless regulatory domains. See [this FAQ](https://docs.raspap.com/faq/#80211ac) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
## Supported operating systems
|
||||
RaspAP was originally made for Raspbian, but now also installs on the following Debian-based distros.
|
||||
|
||||
| Distribution | Release | Architecture | Support |
|
||||
|---|:---:|:---:|:---:|
|
||||
| Raspberry Pi OS | (32-bit) Lite Buster | ARM | Official |
|
||||
| Armbian | Buster | [ARM](https://docs.armbian.com/#supported-chips) | Official |
|
||||
| Debian | Buster | ARM / x86_64 | Beta |
|
||||
| Ubuntu | 18.04 LTS / 19.10 | ARM / x86_64 | Beta |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
We find Armbian particularly well-suited for this project. Please note that "supported" is not a guarantee. If you are able to improve support for your preferred distro, we encourage you to [actively contribute](#how-to-contribute) to the project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Multilingual support
|
||||
RaspAP uses [GNU Gettext](https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/) to manage multilingual messages. In order to use RaspAP with one of our supported translations, you must configure a corresponding language package on your RPi. To list languages currently installed on your system, use `locale -a` at the shell prompt. To generate new locales, run `sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales` and select any other desired locales. Details are provided on our [documentation site](https://docs.raspap.com/translations/)
|
||||
|
||||
The following translations are currently maintained by the project:
|
||||
|
||||
- Čeština
|
||||
- 正體中文 (Chinese traditional)
|
||||
- 简体中文 (Chinese Simplified)
|
||||
- Dansk
|
||||
- Deutsch
|
||||
- Español
|
||||
- Finnish
|
||||
- Français
|
||||
- Ελληνικά (Greek)
|
||||
- Indonesian
|
||||
- Italiano
|
||||
- 日本語 (Japanese)
|
||||
- 한국어 (Korean)
|
||||
- Nederlands
|
||||
- Polskie
|
||||
- Português
|
||||
- Русский
|
||||
- Svenska
|
||||
- Türkçe
|
||||
- Tiếng Việt (Vietnamese)
|
||||
|
||||
If your language is not in the list above, why not [contribute a translation](https://docs.raspap.com/translations/#contributing-to-a-translation)? Contributors will receive credit as the original translators.
|
||||
|
||||
## HTTPS support
|
||||
The Quick Installer may be used to [generate SSL certificates](https://docs.raspap.com/ssl-quick/) with `mkcert`. The installer automates the manual steps [described here](https://docs.raspap.com/ssl-manual/), including configuring lighttpd with SSL support.
|
||||
|
||||
Simply append the `-c` or `--cert` option to the Quick Installer, like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
curl -sL https://install.raspap.com | bash -s -- --cert
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: this only installs mkcert and generates an SSL certificate with the input you provide. It does *not* (re)install RaspAP.
|
||||
|
||||
More information on SSL certificates and HTTPS support is available [in our documentation](https://docs.raspap.com/ssl-quick/).
|
||||
|
||||
## OpenVPN support
|
||||
OpenVPN may be optionally installed by the Quick Installer. Once this is done, you can manage client configuration and the `openvpn-client` service with RaspAP.
|
||||
|
||||
To configure an OpenVPN client, upload a valid .ovpn file and, optionally, specify your login credentials. RaspAP will store your client configuration and add firewall rules to forward traffic from OpenVPN's `tun0` interface to your configured wireless interface.
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**: this feature is currently in beta. Please [read this](https://docs.raspap.com/faq/#openvpn-fails) before reporting an issue.

### Footnotes
|
||||
|
||||
<sub><a name="#footnote-1"></a>1. If you cancel your sponsorship, GitHub schedules a cancellation request which will become effective at the end of the billing cycle, which ends at the 22nd of a month for monthly sponsorships. This means that even though you cancel your sponsorship, you will keep your access to Insiders as long as your cancellation isn't effective. All charges are processed by GitHub through Stripe. As we don't receive any information regarding your payment, and GitHub doesn't offer refunds, sponsorships are non-refundable.</sub>
|
||||
|
||||
<sub><a name="#footnote-2"></a>2. It's currently not possible to grant access to each member of an organization, as GitHub only allows for adding users. Thus, after sponsoring, please send an email to sponsors@raspap.com, stating which account should become a collaborator of the Insiders repository. We're working on a solution which will make access to organizations much simpler.</sub>
