And in linux you use the pl2303 kernel module that is shipped with most by default, just plug in and run dmesg to find out what serial interface it created.

I don't think that the pl2303 module is in either my Lynx or Backtrack machine, as both give me results similar to the below:

If you have a stable version, using the same 1.0 firmware, using UK routers, and yours doesn't lock up like mine do, then I'm leaning toward a problem with the flashing. perhaps Windows is throwing extra network traffic over the line. So I'll try to get the usb to serial driver working in Linux and use minicom vs putty to flash my router. Is that how you do it?

You were right on the money... the driver is built into my Lynx. I just had to use a USB hub to get the driver to work (I had to do the same in Windows to get it to work). Here is the working output

[ 1650.112459] usb 1-5.3: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7

Now I'm going to try out Minicom to see if I can flash with Linux

I didn't have a lot of time to get minicom working, but I did reflash again using putty. same result. Changing nothing but the password, it locks up whenever a victim tries to connect, and it isn't even pingable. I'll try to get it working in Linux later.

I never was able to get the 1.0 firmware to work. Sorry. I went back to the instructions at http://www.hak5.org/w/index.php/Fon_Jasager_Install

These seem to be pretty stable, with the exception of if I am not IP forwarding through my laptop, the Fon doesn't seem to give out an IP address. I think I can fix that somewhere in the configuration. My goal is to have a stand alone Pineapple, which users connect to (and obtain an IP address), and dnsmasq redirects any query that they make to a webpage stored on the FON.

Any suggestions on how to set up the dhcp on the Fon to serve out an IP address, and how to set up dnsmasq to redirect any query to, say, index.html?

[digininja]

I've posted the line for dnsmasq quite a few times in the forums, you should be able to find it with a bit of searching.

As for redirecting to index.html you are mixing things up. dnsmasq is a DHCP/DNS server you are wanting a web server and you would have to configure it to respond to any page with your version rather than the one requested. I could tell you how to do it easily in apache but on the one on the Fon don't know, not even sure if it could be done without quite a bit of effort.
