In order to register your devices on the MiNET network, you will need to add your MAC addresses to your account. If you do not know how to do this, you can follow this tutorial which will show you how to proceed. If you do not know your MAC addresses, this tutorial should give them to you.

If you have a problem with your current connection, redo this tutorial (and don’t forget to download the newest version of the script, that could have changed), and if it still doesn’t work don’t hesitate to send us a ticket.

Setting up your PC with Linux (WiFi)

  • Make the script executable, using the following command :

chmod u+x ./autoConnectLinuxMiNET.sh

  • Run the script, using the following command :

./autoConnectLinuxMiNET.sh

  • Answer the script’s questions. You must pay attention to what the script tells you !

  • If you haven’t done it yet, add your WiFi mac address on adh6. The script should have given you your WiFi card’s MAC address. (You need to add it as a “Wireless” MAC adress on adh6, and then click on “Add the device”). Don’t forget that your connection can only work if you have added your mac addresses on adh6.

  • If you just added your MAC address on adh6, restart the connection and you should now be connected !
