Hi! I hope this is the right community to ask.
Next week I will be on the road for 5 Days for work. I have quite some spare time, so I thought I would dig up my raspberry project again and hopefully finish it.
I need it with me, because it controls some hardware, so a VPN to home does not work. So only option I could think of, is to connect the pi directly to my laptop via an ethernet cable. As far as I understood from some research is that I would need to install and run an DHCP server on my laptop, which they did not recommend. Alternatively they suggested to just take a router and plug both devices in there. I don’t really have a spare router, so that’s not an option either.
To be hones it confuses me a little, that there does not seem to be a standard for connecting to a device directly over a single cable and login with a user account.
Any recommendations how I can work on the pi like with ssh?
Thanks a lot!
I think it doesn’t matter nowadays. Network interfaces are smart enough to twist them internally, or at least, this is what I experienced. I have no idea when did I had to use specifically a crosswire cable, all of my ethernet cables are patch cables for a while now.
So, it shouldn’t be a problem.
