You can connect the PI board to your network router through an RJ45 or ethernet cable. After plugging it in, the PI\u2019s network <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Light-emitting_diode\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">LED <\/a>should start blinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Usually, the wired connection should be up and ready at this stage\u2014but only if you enabled DHCP on your router. If you\u2019ve not, it\u2019s also an easy process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by accessing your router\u2019s management console (you can use another connected computer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do this by entering its IP address in any internet browser. Then, navigate to the settings and activate <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Dynamic_Host_Configuration_Protocol\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">DHCP<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If wired connections are not your thing, you can opt for an external USB Wifi adapter instead. However, remember that you may need an external power supply for older models to handle the high current draw.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"different-methods-to-setup-wifi-on-raspberry-pi\">Different Methods to Setup Wifi on Raspberry PI<\/h2>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2-29.jpg\" alt=\"Wifi connection\" class=\"wp-image-2815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2-29.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2-29-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2-29-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/2-29-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Wifi connection<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at all the methods to configure your Raspberry PI\u2019s Wifi.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-1-use-the-raspberry-pi-imager\">Method 1: Use the Raspberry PI Imager<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>The Raspberry PI imager received new updates that made setting up your Wifi easier. And the best part is that this method works even if you run a headless setup. So here\u2019s how to begin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Start by installing the latest version of the Raspberry PI imager.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open it after the installation to ensure everything is correct.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, click Ctrl+Shift+X (or CMD+Shift+X for Mac) to open the Raspberry Pi imager\u2019s advanced menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Search for \u201cConfigure Wifi\u201d and check the box. It should allow you to input your Wifi credentials.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finally, save your settings and flash the OS to your Raspberry PI\u2019s microSD card.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note: Change the Wifi country in \u201cConfigure Wifi\u201d according to your country\u2019s code. Also, you can explore other settings, like \u201cTurn on <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/hardwarehow.com\/how-to-access-raspberry-pi-ssh\/\"><em>SSH<\/em><\/a><em>\u201d for headless installations.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-2-use-raspberry-pi-os-gui\">Method 2: Use Raspberry PI OS GUI<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re running a Raspberry PI OS desktop, it\u2019s easy to configure your Wifi with the provided GUI. And it works similarly to setting up Wifi on other smart devices, like laptops, smartphones, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-3-use-command-line-with-raspiconfig\">Method 3: Use Command Line with Raspi-Config<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Are you running a Raspberry PI server distribution without a GUI? Then, you can use Raspi-Config as an alternative to method 2. Also, it works on a Raspberry PI OS desktop setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more? You can use this console-based application for configuring various Raspberry PI settings. For example, you can use it for network configuration, accessing boot options, and remote access setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can open Raspi-Config using the following code:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/FLxnroLUlZlXqZB_l3OeZ19DHON5mgmr5C71O57Vxock5ptAEejFXjYGi5wxRdJQtZ4OkOavJFXlFflsV6C4lQC1L5pajLGYTea2GUxcJq5UJa10OsWbzOPMg3ERi2lE8WNfQoDzip_bzr8P6RJ4ug\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, you can use your keyboard\u2019s arrow keys to move to \u201cNetwork Options\u201d and click Enter. Next, choose Wifi and follow the next on-screen instructions to input your SSID and password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After, close the Raspi-Config menu and reboot the Raspberry PI to connect to the Wifi.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-add-wifi-to-a-headless-raspberry-pi\">How to Add Wifi to a Headless Raspberry PI?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>This article mentions \u201cheadless setup\u201d a lot, but what does it mean? A headless Raspberry PI refers to boards you run without a keyboard, mouse, or monitor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And there are other methods you can use for headless Raspberry PI setups. So let\u2019s take a closer look.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"activate-secure-shell-ssh\">Activate Secure Shell (SSH)<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Before diving into the methods, you must enable <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Secure_Shell\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">SSH <\/a>on the Raspberry PI. It\u2019s an essential setting for running your Raspberry PI headless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why? Because with SSH, you can access the internet and run terminal commands on your Raspberry PI remotely from a primary computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can activate SSH on a headless setup by placing a file titled \u201cssh\u201d (without an extension) on your SD card\u2019s boot partition. Consequently, it will instruct the PI board to enable SSH when booting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s get to the configuration methods.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-1-use-an-ethernet-cable\">Method 1: Use an Ethernet Cable<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>An ethernet connection can use SSH to help you set up the Raspberry PI\u2019s Wifi connection. Once you establish the connection between your PI and router, head to the DHCP allocation section on the management console to find the board\u2019s IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the IP address, you can use an SSH client (like PuTTY) to access the Raspberry PI on Windows. Or you can use SSH on MacOS and Linux without extra software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Linux or MacOS, input the following command with your Raspberry PI\u2019s IP address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/1mtaWBA5BRRzXwF0NyjZ3ADLigidNKPM-lV0H_-rcN6oQI5TLz_7n7Tr3tB9co5ouIwN4ZB1bCuiSCF7Jmh4_H5sab_eB_KHMeAuA3wOnZku2lwVDs4YT1brxvR6b4F3-DfunL348DqNLZ1CjSfEDQ\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After connecting successfully, use the next command to open the configuration panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/h97qoOLjXeexVMtLFDtA0wVbKDckWZHbxHXGMHueSrlek72w4u5sVhHjcJPmOGzVvw0CfnTiL584aVPmY8EFhsdogG6EzC-DSANeUW6gwkzY3nMjX4zCJZ678MJ4Ywx5tiYORNGHVFB1hBM0m05HvA\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, you can configure the Wifi connection as we did in the previous methods.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"method-2-use-wpasupplicant\">Method 2: Use wpa_supplicant<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>This method requires a little more tweaking. For instance, you can access the Wifi configuration by using the <strong><em>wpa_supplicant.conf <\/em><\/strong>file on the Raspberry to access the Wifi configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do this by creating a <strong><em>wpa_supplicant.conf <\/em><\/strong>file with the following content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note: You can use any text editor.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/EwblBYP9XTNIrUlWwZIkaqBEqzm933wwwxPKrEejAXp08tHoO4D3EPyQ4owvrPFGiUNCbnGQyhzbnBb5ZjS9auTpBH87U6xILeptJxmulSdVIVbIGVeox0v_aRKBf1UASHu0ol8I7Q49Cr4jGirP6Q\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to switch &lt;Country Code&gt;, &lt;SSID&gt;, and &lt;PASSWORD&gt; with the relevant details. Click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iban.com\/country-codes\">here<\/a> to learn more about country codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, mount your Raspberry PI OS SD card and copy the <strong><em>wpa_supplicant.conf <\/em><\/strong>file you just created to the \/boot partition\u2019s root. Like the process for enabling SSH, the Raspberry PI will use the file to apply your Wifi settings when booting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it may be tricky to troubleshoot this method on headless setups. But if it fails on the first attempt, check the name of the file and its contents to confirm that everything is correct before the next try.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-test-your-wifi-connection\">How to Test your Wifi Connection<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at how to test your wifi connection after using any of the above methods.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"check-ip-address\">Check IP Address<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>You can check your <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/IP_address\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">IP address<\/a> to ensure everything works correctly. But first, unplug your ethernet cable before using the following command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh4.googleusercontent.com\/UfQbzxDwfTZJvETllHaUnL_-JrohzZs05GigFgCmka9gSmFYGbFxMPDIr5Yx2_QVGKGZNoXLh-_sAG_myiUch0rvScIys004sahEQjyobNVhBM0yw5MwWV5esp52aRY3UYF4aiWFqXAJG-7aQi_H1w\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, you should see a bunch of information after inputting the code. But next to \u201cinit,\u201d you should see the PI\u2019s IP address, indicating an established connection.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ping-a-website\">Ping a Website<\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, you can check if your Wifi connection allows sending and retrieving data from any website. For example, try <em>ping google.com <\/em>to see if it reaches the Raspberry PI.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"rounding-up\">Rounding Up<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Raspberry PI is incredible! But you may not harness its full potential by configuring your Wifi. In truth, accessing the internet through a PI board opens more possibilities, like a full desktop experience, advanced robotics, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But while the newer models come with pre-installed wireless connection modules, the older ones do not have such features. Thankfully, you can solve the lack of wireless connectivity with an external USB Wifi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve also shown you multiple ways to configure the Wifi on regular and headless Raspberry PI setups. Remember to test the connection after using any of the methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have more questions?
