In this post, we will focus on configuring wifi network using “raspi-config” and connecting to wifi network. This allows us to do ssh to Raspberry Pi and transfer files using scp from the host computer.
- Run the rasp-config command from Rpi shell to start the configuration
- From different configuration options available select Network-configuration.
- In the network configuration, there are different options for configuring “Host Name”, Wi-Fi, and “n/w interface names”. Select Wi-Fi option to configure wifi network.
- Select Wi-Fi to set SSID and password, you can enter SSID and password of the network.
- After exiting this you can check the network connection with the ifconfig command.
This is how we configure wifi network on raspberry pi and use to transfer the files and to connect to Internet.
