Mk4 Pineapple Urban Assault Mod


Recommended Posts

Could you imagine putting a pineapple on a huge antenna somewhere that high? Have always fancied playing with wifi, a large antenna and a high building, not got round to it yet.

That would be EPIC digininja! The only problem with tall buildings is that birds like them and if it has weird access, you could find yourself walking through a few inches of bird poo everywhere you step. (Unfortunately, yes, I do know this from experience) You should definitely play around with it someday. It's fun!

Either that or I'm imagining standing on a roof top with a parabolic antenna slowly moving it side to side till I close in on my target two blocks away in the corner booth in the Italian coffee shop. He doesn't notice the slight hiccup in network traffic as he jumps onto my connection and now all his evil plans are mine.

Amazing. But I had always wondered the same. I live on the twelfth floor of a building and have a uni campus across the main street here. I could reach it with a Yagi or similar. Hm, I guess I do have to try this.

What is the buckyball looking thing with the yellow bands?

Nanodots.

wowza. um, plans for that puppy?

It's only 6-8dBi. I built it back when wardriving was going hot and heavy. The standard antennas weren't holding up very well in Alaska's winters, and at the time external antennas were stupid expensive. :rolleyes:

So something like this? Biquad on a Dish dish.

What would be cool is to take your antenna on a step motor connected to an arduino.

Then the antenna would turn until a strong signal comes in and then stop and then you can start hackking :)

then press next button and antenna would start turning again searching for next signal

If we do it I'm planning to video the whole thing so I can send it to Darren for the show.

I think we can cover Leeds and Hull from his airport so should get some good data, will make sure that we do it some time this year.

I'm planning to take up a a few, a big omni which I'll sit horizontally to do a wide sweep then a couple of yagis so I can have one fairly fixed and one to wave around and point at interesting looking buildings.

Its the batteries that I'm a bit more worried about. Got a big extra one for my eeepc and a Gorilla charger to act as a top up so should be good but would hate to get up and then have them run out.
