1.2: Connecting to Raspberry Pi via SSH - soracom/handson GitHub Wiki

Introduction

In this workshop, you will be connecting from your WiFi-enabled laptop/tablet to Raspberry Pi using SSH.

Step 1: Power your Pi and change your WiFi on your laptop

Please turn on your Raspberry Pi and connect your laptop to the Wi-Fi network labeled on your Raspberry Pi. Connecting Micro USB cable into your Laptop’s USB port will turn your Raspberry Pi on.

Select the SSID(soracom-event-xx) from the Wi-Fi Access point list in your laptop’s Wi-Fi menu and type in the password “soracom7”

  • WiFi: SSID “soracom-event-XX

For Mac/Linux users we recommend using built in “Terminal” program. You can launch it from Spotlight/Launchpad by typing “Terminal” into the Search box at the Top-Center of the Launchpad screen.

Step 3: Connecting to Raspberry Pi

For this workshop, your Raspberry Pi is preconfigured to connected to “soracom-event-XX” Wi-Fi network with a fixed IP address labeled on your Raspberry Pi. Please check the label and connect over SSH following the guide below.
