I’m using Falcon Pi Player (FPP) OS for holiday light sequencing which doesn’t actually work with the method above! Different Steps…. You ideally want the Lite version for headless setup, especially on a Raspberry Pi Zero, as its a much lighter image with a smaller download footprint and importantly, no desktop UI. The IP address can be found from DHCP table OR using an app to scan the network such as “ Network Analyser.Insert MicroSD into Raspberry Pi Zero & Boot.Add file called “wpa_nf” and modify the infoĬtrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev.Flash the MicroSD card with your flavour of OS.On macOS, you can use Etcher to flash your image.Quick steps (Cutdown version) to getting WiFi configured on Raspberry Pi Zero W (A little more involved than using Raspberry Pi 2/3/4 with physical ethernet cables) Open and download the Raspberry Pi OS Lite image, we don't need all the fancy stuff like desktop.
We need to install Raspbian, the default and official Operating System for Raspberry. Setting up a Raspberry Pi Zero W without a monitor is a useful technique for those who don't have access to a dedicated monitor or prefer to. The power consumption is ridiculous, I can use my NAS' USB port.īecause the setup will be headless, we don't need anything more than the Pi itself, its Micro SD Card and an micro USB cable for power. The Raspberry PI Zero W is one of the cheapest Raspberry, it's not powerful, but it's far enough for our needs and the W stands for Wireless, which means we can use WiFi with it, no more ethernet adapter needed, how cool is that?
You can still change the Wi-Fi network, without attaching a screen and keyboard to the Pi. Or perhaps you moved to a different Wi-Fi network. In this post, we will go through all the steps to install Pi-hole on a Raspberry PI Zero W from scratch. Lets say you already wrote a card, but forgot to enter the correct Wi-Fi credentials in Raspberry Pi Imager. If you already have a device that can host Pi-hole maybe you don't this at all. If you want to install Pi-hole on your network, you might be interested in using a Raspberry PI.
