I am new to this also but have some ideas. For you more advanced users, would it be possible to code a "pseudo-authentication" for the Pineapple that would send a client that is secured by WPA or WEP or WPA2 a fake key and when the client responds with the encrypted password...Jasager...say, "yep, that's the right password".
After the initial probe, according to 802.11, it is the router that initiates the connection by sending the client a key, the client then responds with a password that is encrypted and then the router will either accept or deny access depending on if the password is correct. Will this be possible?
