# OpenVPN-Wifi-Access-Point-for-Raspberry-Pi

OpenVPN Wifi Access Point for Raspberry Pi

*This is a bash script based on "Hotspot – WiFi Access Point" from JACEK TOKAR.* 


*Link to the original script: http://raspberry-at-home.com/hotspot-wifi-access-point/*


Description


This script installs a Wifi Access Point on your Raspberry Pi which tunnels your traffic through OpenVPN.


Additionally it's possible to install VPNBOOK.com OpenVPN certificates.


Hardware
 

- Raspberry Pi Version 1 or 2

- Ethernet cable

- WiFi adapter - Not all WiFi adapters work

- SD Card (4GB or greater) with Raspbian on it

- Power supply for your Pi & a Micro USB cable

- USB Console cable (optional) - this makes it a little easier to debug the system

- Case for your Pi (optional)

- A SD or MicroSD card reader (optional)


Preparations

- Install the OS (Raspbian) onto your SD card

- Boot the Pi and configure 

- Don't forget to change the default password for the 'pi' acccount!

- Set up and test the Ethernet and Wifi connection


Installation

- Download the script to your Raspberry Pi

- `chmod +x openvpn_gateway.sh`

- `sudo ./openvpn_gateway.sh`


Troubleshooting

- `sudo service hostapd status`

- `sudo service isc-dhcp-server status`

- `sudo hostapd -d /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf`

- `iw list`

- For some reason, sometimes tun1 is used instead tun0, therefore you need to change the iptables rules to:

  - `sudo iptables --flush`

  - `sudo iptables --list`

  - `sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun1 -j MASQUERADE`

  - `sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i tun1 -o wlan0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT`

  - `sudo iptables -A FORWARD -i wlan0 -o tun1 -j ACCEPT`
