    Hi there,

    what are the login credentials for the local login. The default for ssh login does not work. Also the pi:raspberry does not work.
    If local login is not enabled: How can I enable it?
    I do not have LAN or WiFi on the pi :-(

    From https://www.adsbexchange.com/forum/threads/adsbx-custom-buster-1-0-0.630364/

    SSH Setup

    SSH access is enabled and runs on port 22.

    Default user: pi
    Default password: adsb123

    Have you tried that?

    Doesn't really make sense to use the image if you don't have LAN or WiFi.

    If you want something standalone with a monitor, you'll still need some form of network to install packages.
    (you could start with the Raspbian image that has a graphical interface and then follow the rest of these instructions: https://github.com/wiedehopf/adsb-wiki/wiki/Raspbian-Lite:-ADS-B-receiver)

    Actually I want to test something on the i2c and this is the only Pi I have here at the moment. This has nothing to do with the feeder itself. So yes, you are right. A feeder without internet connection is sensless ;-)
    pi:adsb123 works onlny on the ssh login, not on the local console.

    I would strongly advise logging in to the Pi using PuTTY and changing the default password for the admin account. Once you log-in using pi and adsb123, use the command passwd and type in adsb123 followed by your new password, then confirm it.

    I didn't see this mentioned in the documents for setting up the custom image and it can leave users at risk. When I asked on the forum, only one person told me the custom image was raspian based, but didn't answer the question I asked about changing the password. This suggests a lot of people either already know to do it, or a lot of people have not logged in and changed it.
    Not all of the people coming here are IT experts, most are beginners and just want something to work, they don't all want to know how it works. You might get an RF engineer who can design pre-amps and aerials, but know nothing about IT Security for example.

    When you connect a Pi to a network, depending how everything else is set and without getting too technical, people can scan networks and find devices. Then it's as easy as using the known default credentials to connect and gain access to other parts of your network or make changes to it. Don't make it too easy for people!:)

    So you're saying they can access the network when they already have access to the network?
    If this device were a router this would be much scarier but it isn't.

    Still a note to remind people can't hurt.
