I use IPv6 on my local network so rather than using the DHCP address I use a fixed V6 address instead. Inet 192.168.0.2/24 brd 192.168.0.255 scope global noprefixroute wlan0ġ92.168.0.2 is what you want so from your normal desktop machine: Link/ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Under wlan0 you should see something like: 2: wlan0: mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 Now reboot & log back in to the pi with the keyboard. Next go to Interfacing options and enable SSH so you can log in remotely. Optionally you can also select Hostname here & if your PI a more memorable name – advisable if like me you have quite a few! Select Network Options then Wifi then enter your Wifi SSID (it’s name) and password. Then enter raspberry for the existing password & then choose a new one Once Raspbian has booted you need to setup the networking, so login as pi with the default password of raspberry.

Once NOOB’s starts select Raspbian Lite – you don’t actually need to use a mouse here although some keyboards can accept a USB mouse or use a hub if you get stuck.ĭuring the install It’ll ask you for the wifi details, just select the correct one and it will then download Raspbian Lite & reboot once it’s done. Next connect the keyboard, HDMI & SD card into the PI then plugin the power & turn on. To setup the PI get the latest version of NOOBS from and install it on the SD card. Note: In this article I use vi as the editor, but there are others – the most common one used is pico which you might be more used to – just replace vi with pico in the commands below if you want to use that editor instead. Now I used a PI Zero W was I wanted something small and dedicated to this but you can use any PI for this as long as there’s a network connection available for it (so a Zero W or a PI 2B & up) USB keyboard, mini-HDMI to HDMI adaptor & HDMI cable (for setup only).I had one on the shelf for a few years but you can get suitable ones for about £10-£20 online, think I paid about £15 for it micro-B USB to USB A female cable to connect the SDR to the PI Zero.SD card – I used a SanDisk Ultra 32GB UHS-1 card as I have a few as spares lying around but any one for a PI will do.

This post describes how I setup a basic ADS-B receiver on a Raspberry PI Zero W using a USB RTL2832U based Software Defined Radio so that you can see any ADS-B equipped aircraft in your local area and present it on your own website.
