Before turning on nodogsplash (nds) I was able to ssh into the pineapple and ping an external web site to verify network connectivity. But then once I turned on nds, I would lose external connectivity but still be able to ping other computers in the 172.16.0.0/16 range. Also, I did try clicking the automatic configuration like you recommended. It would seem as I'm cutting off my own tree branch, so to speak, when turning on nds. Should I be adding a MAC address to the trusted clients list in the nds config?
Also -- is this an advisable networking setup?? I currently have a control pc directly tethered to the pineapple over ethernet. The control PC is connected to 'GoodWLAN' and shares its internet connection to the pineapple. The pineapple is broadcasting 'EvilWLAN' and my victim pc is connected to that. This works as long as nds is turned off. As soon as I turn on nds, the control pc gets kicked off 'GoodWLAN'.
Or, should I turn off the wifi radio on the controller pc to instead be a dhcp client to the pineapple? (I would then need to configure the pineapple to connect to GoodWLAN to get external internet access.)
