[Pentester - what are your thoughts?]

They sell their sensors for ~2-5K to make up for the low volume, even though its basically an atheros chip inside with some storage and a cell modem (~$180-250 actual cost of hardware).

My company does the software side of things (reporting, data crunching, posting messages to portable message boards) so I frankly don't give two fucks about the plight of the low-volume/high margin hardware folks.

That's awesome and really interesting to read - ever thought of making some money on the side? $1k boxes still gives you an amazing mark up and undercuts the vendors. Guess it depends if you can be bothered with the hassle of supporting it once it's out there in the hands of consumers.

[General modules Discussion]

You are right - and it does not. Module Developers have gotten early access to the device and are coding them up. They could share (and some have) their code, which can then be copied into the /pineapple/modules folder, but not everyone chooses to do that (because they may not be ready for that yet, or depend on features not yet released to the public).

An update will be out this week which should include the Module Manager. Then it will just be a short matter of time for developers to submit their modules to us and for us to make them available.

Once that is done, I'm going to have time to publish documentation for other developers to start creating modules.

Cheers Seb, I can wait for the FW release, I was just wondering where I'd drop the modules via command line; just wanting to learn how the Nano ticks

[General modules Discussion]

Looking at the modules available already, what's the correct way to add them to my Nano running firmware 1.0.1? I'm new to Pineapple, and whilst I'm learning how it all works, some of them look as if they'd be really useful- at the moment Cabinet looks very useful. Do I grab the necessary files from Github and drop them into a specific folder on the Nano, or is there more to it than that?

Cheers.

[What log files does the Nano write to, and where are they stored?]

Thanks Darren, I'll have a poke around there. Looking forward to the new FW

[What log files does the Nano write to, and where are they stored?]

As I'm getting to grips with the Nano (my first pineapple), I was looking at the logs available via the front end, and wondered:

1. What logs are written to

2. where are they stored?

Not just the PineAP and reporting logs, but any others that may be of use/interest. Things like users hitting the landing page (and any interactions they have with it), system events and errors, etc etc

cheers

[Introducing the WiFi Pineapple NANO]

In the mean time I shot a quick WiFi Pineapple Primer video that'll introduce the fundamentals of the PineAP suite.

Thanks Darren, that's a really useful intro - greatly appreciated. A good way to spend your New Years day :)

Thanks Seb, appreciate it

Bi Bolus and welcome to the WiFi Pineapple Community!

Let me get right to your questions:

1. You can insert the card right away, because you can format it using the WiFi Pineapple webinterface. Simply navigate to the Advanced module and select "Format SD card" from the dropdown in the USB panel. This will format the card ext4 and also create a 1GB swap partition. After the process is done, you may need to remove and re-insert the SD card for it to mount. Saying that, there is currently a bug with it not mounting at boot, but the upcoming firmware upgrade will resolve this.
2. You can use it right away, but it would be best to let it charge first. Simply use the provided micro USB cable and wait until all four LEDs are light up. Should only take a couple of hours, depending on current charge level and rate of charging.
3. Kali will make your life the easiest, but Win7 or OSX will do just fine. With OSX, there are issues with ICS (Thanks, Apple!), but I was recently told of a program called "IceFloor" which allows you to reliably do ICS. Not sure what other firewall settings you need to change though. In the end, if you don't mind linux, Kali is a good one.

I hope that answers all your questions :)

[Brand new to pineapple]

Hi all, my Wifi Pineapple Nano arrived in the UK today, itching to get started.

Before I do, a couple of questions about the basics:

1. I've bought a new 32Gb Micro SD card. Do I need to format that before inserting it into the Nano and booting it up for the first time?

2. I have the tactical edition; should I charge up the battery for an amount of time before using it, and if so for how long? Or can I start charging the battery and plug the Nano into it?

3. I've got a choice of machines I can connect it to for first use; Macbook (but probably wont due to ICS issues); a Win 7 machine, or a low powered Netbook running Kali as the native OS. Any thoughts on which one to go for?

Thanks all!

[Introducing the WiFi Pineapple NANO]

Ordered! Looking forward to receiving this as I've been waiting a while. Very new to this, so am wondering:

• Is there much difference between setting this up, and the MarkV?
• Any recommendations for Micro SD card capacity? Minimum and maximum storage space?

Cheers all
