Deploying to a device (SSH / first-time setup)

Update device (deploy script)

From your local machine (with the repo and SSH access to the device):

# Default device: root@10.130.60.121
./scripts/deploy.sh

# Or specify target
./scripts/deploy.sh root@192.168.1.100

# Or use env
TARGET=root@10.130.60.121 ./scripts/deploy.sh

The script:

  1. Copies etc/, scripts/, web/, and configure_fm350_5g.sh to the device at /tmp/Alpine_5G/
  2. Runs ./scripts/install.sh on the device (installs/updates scripts, services, Web GUI)
  3. Restarts 5g-router and 5g-webgui so changes take effect

Ensure SSH key or password auth works to the target before running.


First-time SSH access

1. Get the device on the network

  • Connect the device via Ethernet (eth0) so it gets an IP (DHCP) or set a static IP during Alpine setup.
  • Note the device IP (e.g. from your routers DHCP list or Alpines console).

On your local machine (not the device):

# Generate a key if you dont have one
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your@email" -f ~/.ssh/alpine_5g -N ""

# Copy the public key to the device (replace IP and user)
ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/alpine_5g.pub root@10.130.60.121

Then connect with the key:

ssh -i ~/.ssh/alpine_5g root@10.130.60.121

To avoid specifying the key each time, add to ~/.ssh/config:

Host alpine-5g
    HostName 10.130.60.121
    User root
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/alpine_5g

Then: ssh alpine-5g.

3. Password login

If you prefer password auth:

ssh root@10.130.60.121

Youll be prompted for the root password. Key-based auth is still recommended for scripts and automation.

4. Deploy the repo to the device

From your local machine (repo on your laptop):

# Copy entire repo
scp -r /path/to/Alpine_5G root@10.130.60.121:/tmp/

# Then on the device (SSH in and run):
ssh root@10.130.60.121 "cd /tmp/Alpine_5G && chmod +x scripts/install.sh && ./scripts/install.sh"

Or clone from git on the device if it has internet:

ssh root@10.130.60.121
apk add git
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USER/Alpine_5G.git /tmp/Alpine_5G
cd /tmp/Alpine_5G && ./scripts/install.sh

After deployment

  • Edit /etc/5g-router.conf on the device if needed (APN, interfaces).
  • Start 5G: service 5g-router start or /usr/local/bin/connect-5g.sh.
  • Check status: /usr/local/bin/status-5g.sh.
  • Health check for monitoring: /usr/local/bin/healthcheck-5g.sh (exit 0 = OK, 1 = down).
