Thaidog Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I see that my Fon has sniffed so SSID's and other things from my old XP laptop. I was wondering if there is a way to completely or partially reset the Fon so it's back to brand spanking new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 You should be able to get a set of Fonarea firmware off their website and then used redboot to install it. I know they have instructions for installing their own firmware on the fon+ so they should have it for the fon. After all the effort you went to to get it working you are going back to the original fon, why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to wipe all the info ift has about any networks it sniffed. No I like the Fon the way it is now ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FON does not even know you are sniffing, it just thinks it is handing an internet connect out to people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats right. at the moment the log file is put on the jjfs partition in the /karma/logs directory, in the next release I'm moving it to /tmp so it uses memory rather than flash as that will be more efficient.

Strange... it looked like it was keeping the listed ssid's I was entering - even after rebooting... maybe not.... it's been somewhat unstable. It get's hot pretty quick.
