Download WiFi driver

Run the following command to download the WiFi driver at boot time.

root@bananapi ~ # nano /etc/modules
# add the wifi driver
ap6210 op_mode=2

Adding Internet Access

As long as your WiFi users can connect to your BananaPro, they can't do much more than run apps on BananaPro. Assuming your eth0 port is connected to a network that has Internet access, you can give them Internet access. All that is required is IPv4 forwarding enabling traffic to pass between eth0 and wlan0 ports.



echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

To make this permanent, edit the / etc / sysctl file and leave the line uncommented:

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
