Quick Start

Begin with a clean install of the latest release of a supported Linux distribution. In the example below, Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) Lite is used. Update your OS to its latest version, including the kernel and firmware, followed by a reboot:.


 sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get full-upgrade
 sudo reboot

Set the WiFi country in raspi-config's Localisation Options:


   sudo raspi-config

Invoke RaspAP's Quick Installer:


   curl -sL https://install.raspap.com | bash

The Quick Installer will complete the steps in the manual installation for you.

Following a reboot, the wireless AP network will be configured as follows:

IP address: 10.3.141.1
Username: admin
Password: secret
DHCP range: 10.3.141.50 — 10.3.141.254
SSID: raspi-webgui
Password: ChangeMe

It is strongly recommended that you change these default credentials in RaspAP's Authentication and Hotspot > Security panels.

Your AP's basic settings and many advanced options may now be modified by RaspAP.
