nickbouwhuis Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Dear Hak5 fans, I found a secondhand FON router on the internet and I will get it in the mail tomorrow. I bought it for it's Jasager thingies that it can do. But i'm not sure what guide to follow to do this all. The one over at season 3/4 or the new one at this page: http://hak5.org/hack/wifi-pineapple-flashing-guide Thanks! -Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 That is the current guide and was created by Darren so I'd go with that. If you get stuck ask questions but please give as much info as you can on what you did, what worked and didn't work and where you are stuck.

nickbouwhuis Posted May 16, 2011 Author Share Posted May 16, 2011 Thanks! Will try it when I get the little badass piece of hardware :). I can tell you allready that it is a original FON La Fonera. Not the Plus or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 also PLEASE search the forums for the answers to your questions. Most likely they have been answered many times... Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Hmm. The AP51 utility says that Telnet for redboot is not enabled. How do I resolve this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 It is a UK Fon? If so then it is closed by default, you need a cable to access and enable it. If it isn't UK based then when are you running the flashing app? You need to power on the Fon after the flash app has started as redboot is only enabled for the first 4 seconds or so after boot.

nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 I don't think it's UK. But it is possible. Can I check that somewhere.. And how can I manualy enable it? -- I am running the flashapp when the FON power is plugged out and a ethernet cable is connected to my PC. Then I hit GO in the app and plug the power in. After a couple of NO PACKET's I see that error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 sounds like it is either a UK one or one that has the same setting as a UK one. Basically it only listens on 0.0.0.0 for redboot, i.e. you can't connect to it. No idea how to tell from the outside, just know that that is the case. To enable it you'll need a serial cable and connect direct to the console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Hmm. So I need to open up this FON? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 I also found this guide. Maybe that can help? http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=nl&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fairdump.cz%2Flafonera-hacking-jasager-penetracni-testy-wifi-siti%2F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 might work and give you a different way in. Anything is worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) I downgraded to 0.7.1 r1. Followed the steps on this page http://forums.hak5.org/index.php?showtopic=9908. And it worked! I am flashing the firmware right now as I am typing this. Just needed to patch the redboot. And that is supersimple with that old but GOLDWORTH forumpost. Thanks Darren! You're a genius -- I downgraded to 0.7.1 r1 by holding the reset button for 20 seconds. After that. It will reset to factory rom. After that. I could run the SSHenable.html and get in my FON.

digininja Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 well done, glad it worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 Everything is set up and should work now. Only, I can't connect to my FON wirelesly. The signal is also poor and so Jasager does not work well. Is this a hardware or software issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 wouldn't have thought it was software based. Is the antenna connected properly? Are you too close? Wifi doesn't work at too close a range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hmm. With the standard fon firmware. The Wifi worked just fine. But with the Jasager OpenWRT firmware. The range is very short. I have to be directly in front of it to get 4 out of 5 bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digininja Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I've heard someone say that before but not for a long time. Dig back through the forums and you might find the reference. No idea what could cause it as the software doesn't do anything to modify signal strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 19, 2011 Author Share Posted May 19, 2011 It was just the antenna. Very, very weak or just broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickbouwhuis Posted May 19, 2011 Author Share Posted May 19, 2011 Btw. Jasager is an awesome piece of software. Had a lot of fun. People stopped by with their laptops in front of my doorstep. Made a little A3 that says free internet. And when they go. They get an awesome rickroll. thanks for all your help DigiNinja! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
