so when im using my pineapple with my alfa is that not using the same princaple? all i want is to use a USB for storage+my alfa for passthrough
The problem is that the more items you add like your USB for storage and even a passive hub the pineapple will be unable to provide enough power for all your accessories. Rather than the pineapple shutting down it will just start to act unstable or unreliable.
-
yours is a powered hub - im speaking of a unpowered hub, so i use less battery.
You are going to want a powered USB hub.....we see so many problems on the forum because people don't use a powered hub. Do you think the power is free if you get it through the USB port on the pineapple?

The MK4 is based on this board from Alfa:

Or with a case:

I confirm that cable make difference.
i got that cable from ebay for 4$ free shipping.
It change signal tremendously.
For the better or worse?

If you can still get to it with SSH you may want to re-flash it with 2.5.0 again?

I cant comment on the hak shop one, I use this one and it doesn't require any cutting.

I am wondering of GND is used for device detection.
Its possible, if you reconnect the black and power the hub then plug it into the pineapple without the pineapple powered. If the pineapple starts to boot then you know you still have power going through.

Hello !
You are going to want to purchase a POWERED USB hub if the one you actually own does not have a power option. The one you linked has a wall power adapter but I do not see one in the picture of your gear.
If your USB hub is capable of getting power from an external source cut the end off and modify it to get power from the battery pack.
***CAUTION*** make sure that your USB hub does not back feed power to the pineapple, if it does you will need to cut the red and black wires on the cable that connects the USB hut to the pineapple.***
EDIT: If you have questions on how to mod the USB cable or more info on the subject of USB and powering the pineapple have a look at this thread: http://forums.hak5.org/index.php?/topic/27504-usb-power-wifi-pineapple/

I typically just connect to my pineapple with a laptop directly to it. But you can do that and instead of having a meterpreter listener or anything on your laptop, just have it on a server at home that is setup for listening or use a VPS in that aspect. You can have it running and ready for connections. Then you re-direct users with your pineapple to your VPS fake site and the only load on the pineapple would be the passing of traffic through it. (In theory)
Got it, kinda what I figured but figured I would ask. Sometimes someone has a crazy cool way of doing things I haven't thought of =) Thanks for the replay.

Any chance you can link the place you ordered from? OR PM with it if you prefer. Man 64MB would be nice!
-
Mr-Protocol, I completely agree, but i'm curious what type of VPS are you using and how do you connect it to your pineapple?
-
The pineapple will only successfully connect open wifi networks. The karma log will see ALL the requests but cant connect the protected ones.
-
I would try and setup an open wireless connection on a device you control, that way you can eliminate all the unknown variables and see if it connects.

LOL love it man! I have several aeronets right now, looks like i'm digging them out =)

I have verified that I am receiving power from the USB Hub alone. I have tried it with both the red and the black (each on their own) plugged into the battery. Do I need to clip a couple of wires on the black male to keep the power from back feeding? I'm guessing the iwres clipped from the red male are the data wires, to make it a power only connection.
Check out this picture:

You do not need the red or black.

is it ok if i used isound 16000 mah battery pack ? for powering up pineapple + usb hub + alfa NHA ?
since i can power 5 device at the same time.please advice
As long as it supports the proper voltage then no problem it will just last longer than the 10000 mah battery.

I have a semi-related question. I recently received my powered USB hub from the Hak Shop and understand that the red is for power and the black is for data. I was under the impression that the hub itself would not power the pineapple, but that seems not to be the case. I opened the hub and it appears two of the wires from the red have been cut, presumably to avoid the back feed issues I have read about in the forums. My questions are, should the hub be providing power to the pineapple like this, is there any risk to my MkIV, and if the answeres are yes/no respectively, should I still be running power to the pineapple in the traditional sense to ensure proper functioanlity?
The equipment being used is the MkIV, the Hak Shop powered hub, and the Anker Astro 3 10000 with a USB to barrel adapter.
Try this, plug the powered USB hub into the MK4 and nothing else, then connect power the USB hub, if the pineapple starts to power on then you know the USB hub is back feeding the MK4 and it is a problem.

Hey I just wanted to point out that Im not sure if you guys noticed but when you are suplying internet to the pineapple some clients will cache the origanal ip and not be dnsspoofed, made worse if they use https/ssl.
using these commands you can redirect all clients based on traffic and not dns lookups
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 172.16.42.1:80
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 443 -j DNAT --to-destination 172.16.42.1:80
[/CODE]I will look into adapting my module If people really need this???
at the moment I don't know how to remove just these two iptable commands in order to switch off without rebooting?
and a way to check that these commands are enabled?
I for one would really like this to be incorporated into your module. I don't always rick roll but when I do I use your module =)
Every little bit more makes this awesome module just that much better!

The proper term is a pigtail.
True, just using the terms already mentioned =)

Sebkinne you need to add this to the next release:-D
Please
OH YEA ++

the wiki is a good place to get info on how to do something but it is limited and there is no direction on where to start and what after that, having a 123 system would teach the basics in the right order.
True, well i'm in if I can be of help with getting this going!

I for one would also be willing to contribute, do you guys think the wiki is the right place to do it? I applied for an account and I never got approval...

Did you read the posts in this thread? I linked you a powered one that does not require any cutting, and a search of the forum will yield you several more..............
The difference in power consumption between a 2 port and 4 is negligible if the other 2 ports are not in use.
