Thanks guys, Patience is fundamental. I've read several issues, here on this forum, with the Mark V. The majority of them seem to be 1st boot (firmware update) The instruction manual is very clear. I hope I don't run into any problems. :) If I decide to SSH (I have unbuntu server installed on a netbook) no need to mess with the Dip switches, right? Also, Will wpa cracking only work when WPS is enabled? Or will it also work with non WPS routers? (using Reaver or Bully I assume) Thanks guys, I really can't wait to get my hands on this thing. Cheers!

Quick question regarding Dip switches. I assume if you don't have any issues with the device, just leave the Dip switches in the up position (1), right? thanks!! cheeto

Thanks Xcellerator!! Great information. A common newbie mistake is getting excited unboxing and not reading the manual thus resulting in bricking etc.. I'm going to read this manual at least 5 times before I power on. Thanks again!!! cheeto Suggestion for Hack5: just an idea, but how about sending the pdf manual link after the purchase is made. It might avoid some headaches. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!

Hi guys, Great forum!! I just ordered my Mark V. However before I receive it I’m reading through the forum to see what I should and should not do. I would really appreciate your suggestions on what to avoid doing etc. My doubts: Can I download the Mark V instruction manual? Once I boot for the 1st time & install the firmware, can I then REMOVE the supplied 2gb SD and replace it with a new one? If replacing with a new class 10 SD, does Mark V format it for me? (in ext4 or fat32) Should the SD have the firmware files on it at all times Or could it be left empty? Thanks for reading. cheeto

Fanbase, Many thanks for the reply. I think I found your writeup: https://forums.hak5.org/index.php?/topic/32210-how-to-use-pem-keycertificate-for-autossh-into-amazon-ec2-instance/ Will these steps work on Ubuntu server (running off of VMware)? I'm sure there will be many things to learn before getting into ssh. For what I understand, ssh is one the most complicated procedures. So if you could figure it out, it should be downhill from there. When watching Chris' tutorial, i couldn't believe how many steps where necessary just to do a ssh. I was thinking of running ubuntu server with VMware. But if I use VMware i might have to type those procedures every time i choose to ssh. There has to be a more efficient way. I guess i better keep reading. Thanks again. Cheeto

Hi Folks, I've been doing A LOT of reading and watching several videos on the Mark V. I'm bound to buy one SOOOOOON. My doubts: 1st of all , I saw both Darren's & Chriswhat's videos on "relay" or "ssh". (EXCELLENT WORK GUYS!!!) Is there an easier way to do this? (with a gui maybe?) Must i follow these steps every time I want to connect remotely? In Darren's explanation, regarding relay mode, must I use an UBUNTU server? If so, will VMware save all the steps i did in order to configure it? Or must i do the whole procedure again evertime i want to connect remotely. Sorry for all the questions. Again, I'm beyond newbie: just now getting into KALI & WifiSlax. Cheers, cheeto
