  1. Hey all I'm going to a camp site soon... I wanna finally try my pineapple mark III out... The camp site is pretty big id say 200 yards squared... What sort of antenna should i get for maximum range in a 360 (omni-directional?) way I've used the Yagi style antennas like Hak5 use but tbh i found them really crap when i used it with my Alfa 2000mW wireless N adaptor... and im 99% sure they are directional anyway i want 360 for maximum ownage! Any idea's?
  2. Hi all Anyone got any idea on what sort of range the AP51 hardware can do with the 5dBi antenna?? I'm going on holiday soon and the camp site where we are staying provides wifi if you pay... I'm going to tether my laptop to my 3g mobile (which has unlimited data) and share out the technolust! This will also let me test the pineapple finally in a real scenario... nothing evil just educational... Any ideas?
  3. Ooooo i see! so shes a little bit old now then haha Whats the spec of it?! it doesn't look like it has much inside it haha Is flashing the mark 2 the same as flashing the mark III in windows? as i've done a mark III before which was stupidly simple... Hmmm... what to do with it... I will stick with my mark III for fun and games but... not sure what to do with this one...? Any ideas? lol
  4. I see! Perhaps i will keep it as is i just prefer the DHCP being on the device and also the BBS layout is awesome! I don't know what model i have I'm pretty sure its a Fon.. model is: mr3201a-38nq
  5. Thanks for the feedback, regarding flashing do you do it the same way as the mark III?
  6. Hello all! I've just got my hands on a mark II pineapple and a mark III pineapple off a very good buddy of mine... Now I have a number of questions... Can you run mark III firmware on the mark II? Can someone link me to a USB to barrel power cable for them both? (unless they use the same one?) Is the mark II still a good little worker for wifi manipulation? I've never used one before and I'm not sure what the differances are between it and the mark III are?? thanks in advance
  7. Hi all Been playing around with the idea of a PFsence,smoothwall etc firewall long time now. I've just purchased a Dell SX280 Ultra Small Form Factor PC, Pentium 4 2.8 with HT, 2GB RAM, and a 40GB HDD. Apparently according to the ESXi 3.5 whitelist this thing will run ESXi 3.5 which is great! It's a tiny machine and if i can run 3 or 4 low spec VM's on it then great! I plan to run x2 windows 2003 servers on it (or 2008 if i can get it to run nice on the lack of RAM), x1 Ubuntu server for local web dev and also a firewall which all my web traffic will go through. My questions are: Can i use a USB wifi adaptor on smoothwall/PFsence or any other u can think of? I'm from the UK and we have differant ways to connect to the net here via the telephone... I think you US guys use RJ45?? correct me if im wrong... Is there anyway to connect my VM directly to the telephone so it is the actual router otherwise i will have to get the VM to connect via wifi to my actual router and then run 2 routers effectively which is kinda pointless.. Out of all of them which is the best?? pfsence?? smoothwall? Cheers in advance guys! sorry if some of these questions are abit n00bish I've never set up a HW firewall before.
  8. Hi Thanks for your reply, I flashed it earlier, needed the latest firmware anyway (i was on 2.0.1) so its now running the latest firmware and i can now get access again via 172.16.42.1.. whats the correct way to get it to run under 192.168.0.x networks? or is it best to just leave it? thanks guys
  9. Hi all I have afew questions: 1, I've just setup my pineapple to work with a 192.168.0.x LAN however since i have done this i cannot get access to the device what so ever? how can i factory reset it back to the normal 172.42.16.x IP setup as the reset botton on the back does not do anything? 2, How much is a mark III (AP51 hardware, latest firmware, usb powered) worth? as i might sell it? Finally, 3, Does anyone else agree, that Snubs, is soooo damn hot :D :D :D :D :D Thanks guys, appreciate any feedback! J
  10. hi all I've searched around but can't see anything about this... My pineapple is now asking me for a username and password after i flashed it to 2.1??? Big thanks to MainFrame on IRC who assisted me in trying to find out the user/pass for it unfortunately we had no luck... I have tried: pineapple / pineapplesareyummy hak5store / pineapplesareyummy hak5 / pineapplesareyummy letmeinyou**** / ffsdamnyou!!! what are the credentials, anyone?
  11. Sorry to bump this but it may help others to know that Darren was 100% correct!! I used a switch and it flashed flawlessly!! I'm now running 2.1 and all tests are showing a flawless flash :) thank you all for your help!
  12. I'm happy to confirm this USB cable DOES power the pineapple flawlessly! no problems what so ever! very happy!
  13. ordered thanks for the heads up! i really appreciate it!
  14. I don't think it would its like using a hub instead of a switch with 2 straight through cables, its the auto negotiating thats the issue which is controlled by the device not the cable and hubs don't touch this side of things and clearly nor do some NICs for referance i used a crossover cable which didn't work
  15. Hello Darren Thanks for your reply! That's interesting! Sucks that I don't have one spare at the moment though. I will have to source one I guess. I may try to use my parents desktop see if their NIC overcomes this issue. All my other boxes/laptops/netbooks here run linux/backtrack Thanks for clearing it up at least I know what I need to do now :)
  16. Tried with 192.168.0.25 as the IP for my ethernet card. no joy Tried reinstalling winpcap again (as admin) (3rd install in total) no joy I've always made sure the pineapple has been off for 5 mins, i have followed your video tutorial since the first attempt (good video by the way) but it never works it just gets stuck, very frustrating
  17. Sounds good to me, look forward to seeing it. I love seeing other peoples hacks :)
  18. Hi Seb I did that every time as per the tutorial. I've check msinfo32 and winpcap (NPF) is running ??? not sure whats going on here :L
  19. I've just tried this with the 2.0 firmware and its still doing the same thing, tried changing my IP to the range it states in the GUI, still gets stuck?!? what's going on??
  20. thanks for this info! can you comfirm i found the right one? http://www.amazon.co.uk/StarTech-feet-Barrel-Power-Cable/dp/B003MQO96U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1325757480&sr=8-1 looks alot better quality then the one i got
  21. I don't have the answer to this but it does sound rather cool! I'd like to exploit that feature. Hmmm strange thats exactly what i have here which i actually purchased its x1 usb one end and 5.5mm barrel the other side, it does appear to power the device (all the lights come on) but i can never ping it or anything like i can on other power sources...
  22. haha, thanks bud, saved me from potentially killing my gear :) I guess i will have to try and repair my battery pack :( can i ask where you got your usb to barrel connector from? i guess mine might be a crap cheap one?
