We investigate the Fredholm alternative for the $p$-Laplacian in an exterior domain which is the complement of the closed unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$ ($N\geq 2$). By employing techniques of Calculus of Variations we obtain the multiplicity of solutions. The striking difference between our case and the entire space case is also discussed.
