+## The Network Installer
+
+Since Rayhunter 0.6.0 there is an alternative, experimental installation
+procedure at `./installer orbic-network` that is supposed to eventually replace
+`./installer orbic`. It does not require any USB driver installation and works
+identically on Windows, Mac and Linux. From our testing it works much more
+reliably on Windows than `./installer orbic` does.
+
+The drawback is that the device's admin password is required. If you have a Kajeet-branded "SmartSpot" you currently have to use the USB-based `./installer orbic`, as we currently don't know of a way to get that admin password.
+
+1. Connect to the Orbic's network via WiFi or USB tethering
+2. Run `./installer orbic-network`
+3. The installer will ask you to log into the admin UI on `localhost:4000`. The password for that is the same as the WiFi password.
+4. As soon as you're logged in, the installer will continue and reboot the device.
+
## Obtaining a shell
After running through the installation procedure, you can obtain a root shell
by running `adb shell` or `./installer util shell`. Then, inside of that shell
you can run `/bin/rootshell` to obtain "fakeroot."
+
+If you are using the network installer, there will not be a rootshell and ADB will not be enabled by the installer. Instead you can use `./installer util orbic-start-telnet` and connect to the hotspot using `nc 192.168.1.1 23`. On Windows you might not have `nc` and will have to use WSL for that.
