# Extend Your Box
|
||||
|
||||
An extended Butter Box pairs the Raspberry Pi with a standalone Wi-Fi
|
||||
router, giving stronger signal and more simultaneous connections.
|
||||
|
||||
With the router, the network can reach 10-30 m (32-98 feet),and can
|
||||
comfortably support 10–20 connected devices at the same time. This setup is
|
||||
ideal for a medium group of people in a medium room, like classrooms,
|
||||
events, or community spaces.
|
||||
|
||||
## Supplies
|
||||
|
||||
* [ ] Raspberry Pi 4, 5 or Raspberry Pi Zero 2W
|
||||
* [ ] Router ([Opal (GL-SFT1200) Wireless Travel
|
||||
Router](https://store-us.gl-inet.com/products/united-states-opal-gl-sft1200-gigabit-wireless-router-dual-band-openwrt-ipv6-tor)
|
||||
or equivilent)
|
||||
* [ ] Power outlet and power cords that accompany the Raspberry Pi and the
|
||||
Router or an [alternative power supply](../power-supply)
|
||||
* [ ] Micro SD Card: Images with the Butter software are usually under 16 GB
|
||||
(we suggest 256 GB). Media that people upload to the chat ends up on the
|
||||
card; it never gets cleared.
|
||||
* [ ] USB Drive (min 32 GB)
|
||||
* [ ] Adapters (as needed)
|
||||
|
||||
_No internet connection is required._

## Steps
|
||||
|
||||
To extend your box, you simply connect a GLi-Net router to the Butter Box
|
||||
with an ethernet cable. Instead of accessing the box from the portal Wi-Fi
|
||||
hotspot (eg. 'butter box' or whichever name you set in the admin settings),
|
||||
users will join the Wi-Fi network of the router.
|
||||
|
||||
### Connect the Butter Box to its power supply.
|
||||
|
||||
Connect the Butter Box to power.
|
||||
|
||||
### Connect Router
|
||||
|
||||
Connect the router to power. Then use the ethernet cable to connect to the
|
||||
Butter Box. Make sure to plug the Ethernet cable into the LAN port on your
|
||||
router.
|
||||
|
||||
### Test Your Connection
|
||||
|
||||
Join the router Wi-Fi. If you have not setup or used this router before,
|
||||
enter the default password found in the user guide included in the
|
||||
package. After 30 seconds, open http://butterbox.local in a browser.
|
||||
|
||||
### Disable Butter Box Wi-Fi Access Point
|
||||
|
||||
Open the admin settings from the Butter Box portal. Navigate to **Secure
|
||||
Portal**. Turn off the Wi-Fi access point. This will hide the Wi-Fi network
|
||||
that broadcasts from the raspberry pi, so that users don’t get confused
|
||||
about which network to join.
|
||||
|
||||
### Invite Users to Join the Router Wi-Fi
|
||||
|
||||
Users will now join the Wi-Fi network of the router when they want to
|
||||
connect to the Butter Box.
