Today I stumbled upon the fact that my KODI based media box (Raspberry Pi 4) is still using a dynamic IPv4 address. Hence I want to connect via ssh regularly, I had to set a static IP on LibreElec (former OpenELEC) which my KODI mediacenter is running on. To achieve that, I had to connect […]
To get your public IP you can use websites like www.whatismypublicip.com/ or just google for it (http://lmgtfy.com/?q=public+ip) But you can also get your public IP via the following Linux shell  command (the smart way :-D): $> curl ifconfig.me/all This gives you an output like that: ip_addr: 31.18.198.134 remote_host: ip123456.dynamic.kabel-deutschland.de user_agent: curl/7.35.0 port: 47745 lang: connection: keep_alive: encoding: […]
The following steps are showing how I did setup my wireless connection with an static IP on my ArchLinux driven RaspberryPi. You need to have installed sudo to uses this instructions: Update all packages: $> sudo pacman -Syu Install dialog package: $> sudo pacman -S dialog Install wpa_supplicant package $> sudo pacman -S wpa_supplicant Run wifi-menu: […]
Sometimes its necessary that your machine gets a static IP-address. For example if you want to run a server or a other service on that machine. On Debian based machines you can do this by: Edit /etc/network/interfaces (f.e.: with nano) auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.88.6 netmask 255.255.255.0 […]
