Hello,
As the navio based raspberry pi system is not GUI based and the wifi in my laboratory requires me to connect first, then login on the webpage, How could I connect to the wifi need requires me to login on the webpage when there is no GUI for this system.
Or can I use the normal raspberry operating system? Will the GUI based operating system influence the performance of navio2?
Thanks
I can think of three other methods, besides loading a GUI-based OS:
- Learn how to use curl to submit your login details automatically with a script.
- If your computer is connected to your PI with an ethernet cable, then you could:
- use ssh’s application-level port-forwarding ( the -D switch), and
- configure the web browser on your computer to connect to the SOCKS proxy on the PI
- If your computer is connected to your PI with an ethernet cable, then you could also:
- install a text-mode web browser on the PI, such as lynx
- accomplish your login with the text-mode browser over ssh
Method 1 might be hard to get working, but it would be the best if you need it to be automated. Method 2 requires a few steps, but everything will be familiar, as you will be browsing the web on your own computer, but through the PI’s wifi. Method 3 might be a little more awkward than method 2 because of the text-mode interface.

Hello Bide,
Thanks for your reply first. Could you post several images to show me how to find the port forwarding? I attached the one I found below
But it seems that I can’t open it. I have connected pi and desktop with a internet cable. And this image is under SSH-Tunnels
You are in the right place, so I have ‘fixed’ your picture:
Does that explain it well enough?
