# Remote support of an Internet-in-a-Box using https://remote.it
|
|
|
|
Remote.it can be a great way to remotely support an Internet-in-a-Box (IIAB).
|
|
|
|
For other approaches, please see http://FAQ.IIAB.IO -> "How can I remotely manage my Internet-in-a-Box?"
|
|
|
|
To install remote.it onto a Raspberry Pi IIAB:
|
|
|
|
1. Set `remoteit_install` and `remoteit_enabled` to `True` in your IIAB's [/etc/iiab/local_vars.yml](http://wiki.laptop.org/go/IIAB/FAQ#What_is_local_vars.yml_and_how_do_I_customize_it.3F)
|
|
2. Install it (remote.it) onto your IIAB, by running:
|
|
```
|
|
cd /opt/iiab/iiab
|
|
sudo ./runrole remoteit
|
|
```
|
|
EXPLANATION: The above installs remote.it code, in a way that was originally designed to be interactive, and provide you the registration code needed to make remote connections to this IIAB.
|
|
|
|
3. To obtain this IIAB's remote.it registration code, run:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt reinstall /opt/iiab/downloads/remoteit-4.13.5.armhf.rpi.deb
|
|
```
|
|
4. Record this registration code in a safe place, similar to a password!
|
|
5. After you've installed the https://remote.it client software onto a separate computer or device (e.g. your own laptop) click on the '+' icon, then enter the remote.it registration number (for the IIAB that you need to connect to).
