LokiAP interfaces witht Lokinet daemon to facilitate connections to the the Lokinet global privacy network. LokiAP provides a simple, responsive web interface to control wifi, hostapd, Lokinet daemon and related services necessary to access Lokinet on the Raspberry Pi or Orange Pi.

WHAT IS LOKI?

https://loki.network/

"Loki is a privacy network which will allow users to transact and communicate privately over the internet, providing a suite of tools to help maintain the maximum amount of anonymity possible while browsing, transacting and communication online. Using the decentralised nature of blockchain technology, Loki creates new private and secure methods of interacting with the internet, as well as building privacy-centric applications, such as messaging services, forums, online marketplaces, and social media platforms."

Loki

This project branches from the work of Raspap and SB Admin 2.

Prerequisites

Start with a clean install of the latest release of Raspbian (currently Buster and Stretch are verified as working). Lite versions are recommended. If using Raspbian Buster you will need to run the command sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change then elevate to root with sudo su before running the LokiAP installer script.

For OrangePi Zero you can use an Armbian Buster "nightly" found here": https://dl.armbian.com/orangepizero/nightly/ or stable Armbian Stretch found here: https://dl.armbian.com/orangepizero/

For Orange Pi R1 you can use Armbian Buster "nightly" found here: https://dl.armbian.com/orangepi-r1/nightly/ or stable Stretch found here: https://dl.armbian.com/orangepi-r1/

Be aware "nightly" Armbian releases can be unstable but are needed to run Buster. If in doubt use a Stretch release build.

To burn the image to an SD card on your PC you can use Etcher: https://www.balena.io/etcher/

Preparing the image

For Raspbian you will need to remove the SD card from the computer, reinsert it, open the boot directory up and create a new textfile file named ssh with no .txt file extension i.e. just ssh in order to remotely connect. This step is not required for Armbian.

Insert the SD card into the device and power it up.

Accessing the device

Obtain a copy of Putty and install it on your PC: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/latest.html

1. Log into your router from your PC and find the address it assigned to the Pi.

2. Start Putty up and enter this obtained address into Putty with settings:

   Host Name Address = the address obtained from router | Port 22 | connection type SSH | then OPEN

   For Raspbian the default login is root password raspberry For Armbian the default login is root password 1234

3. Follow any first user password instructions provided once logged in.

4. If you want to get the lastest updates before installing LokiAP:

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

5. Set the WiFi country in raspi-config's / armbian-config's Localisation Options: sudo raspi-config or sudo arbmian-config for RasperryPi or OrangePi respectively.

6. If you have an older Raspberry Pi without an onboard WiFi chipset, the Edimax Wireless 802.11b/g/n nano USB adapter is an excellent option – it's small, cheap and has good driver support.

With the prerequisites done, you can proceed with either the Quick installer or Manual installation steps below.

Quick installer

Install LokiAP from shell prompt:

$ wget -q https://git.io/fjeSw -O /tmp/raspap && bash /tmp/raspap

The installer will complete the steps in the manual installation (below) for you. You will be occasionally prompted to answer y or n. Answering yes to all prompts will in almost all cases be the answer you want so if in doubt respond with y that you want the default set up and the AP will work.

After the reboot at the end of the installation the wireless network will be configured as an access point as follows:

• IP address: 10.3.141.1
  • Username: admin
  • Password: secret
• DHCP range: 10.3.141.1 to 10.3.141.24
• SSID: loki-access
• Password: ChangeMe
