I think I owe Seb and Darren a drink for this one.

Greetings, Been setting up my Tetra's for an event and I've been having a heck of a time with clients not connecting to the Tetra no matter what I try. Running Firmware 1.0.2, I've done a factory reset, manual firmware reload, and also confirmed on two Tetra's; No clients are able to connect. Just trying to figure out if it's something I'm doing, or if it's a problem others are seeing. About to try out a Nano to see if it's doing the same thing to just make sure it's not anything on my test devices or something weird. Suggestions? Render

Greetings, Been getting a bunch of inquiries about the Church of WiFi WPA tables that are incorrect or mis-informed as well as a seeing a few posts around here that make me a little sad that people are'nt taking the time to read existing FAQ's and documentation. There's alot of misconceptions out there I'd like to clear up here since this forum seems to be a common link among this misinformation. - I still sell the 9 DVD (33Gb) set of tables. They are the same ones from about 5 years ago. There has not been any changes or updates. The reason I still sell them is that people keep buying them. Alot from overseas where bandwidth is scarcer. Drop me a line, Render (AT) renderlab (.) net - They are still realivant as part of your kit as a quick way to test ~ a million words against common SSID's in a few seconds. - Offensive security made thier own with several million hashes per SSID but they are not available anymore as far as I can see but they took the idea and ran - If your SSID is not hashed, no table will help you. Since the SSID is salt to make the hash, a table computed for another SSID wont work. - Hashcat, Pyrit, and other GPU based programs can generate your own hash tables very quickly. Much faster than was (fiesably) possible with the equipment available 5 years ago when we did the CoWF tables. - Online services like wpa-cracker.com can also generate and test hashes for you for a fee, but they are hugely scaleable. Everyone has access to a supercomputer now thanks to the cloud. - If you are a legit pen tester, you've built in the cost and gotten clearances for using one of the online services to test. Have'nt you? - In the files in the tables I sell, the SSID it was hashed for is the filename. There is no convention for identifying this among other tables users have generated. - The wirelessdefence.org instructions are some of the better ones out there, if you cannot follow those, I'm sorry but there's little hope. Hopefully that clears up some of the misconceptions out there and this post can be referenced in future. Render

Happy to report I got it rebuilt, thanks seb. For future note, a sparkfun FTDI basic and some jumper wires will allow you to talk serial to the Mark IV quite easily.

Update: Found another adapter and managed to get to the recovery console. Now just waiting for the kernel.bin and rootfs.bin files to be posted so I can complete the process. Hacking and cough syrup is a dangerous combination.

So I just recieved my MK iv pineapple. Fired it up and after some poking, went to install the latest firmware via the web interface. No idea how it happened, but something went terribly wrong. Basically it's bricked and no communication via wifi or ethernet. I'm familiar with openwrt on many platforms but this one is new to me. Googling around I looked at the flash procedures for the hardware. I lack one of thier official console boards but hacked something together from a usb to serial adapter to the pins on the board. I get what appears to be the bootup output on the console but it's coming up as garbage on the official setings of 115200-8-n-1. If I cant tell the hardware to tftp a firmware, I'm kinda screwed. Of course all of this has to happen just as I'm about to head to a conference and wanted to show off the pineapple. Suggestions for de-bricking? Render
