Pineapple-less Pineapple

[sublimepua]

So lets pretend that there was a highschool student who wanted to understand the technologies behind the wifi pineapple, but didn't have the money to buy one for himself. Would it be possible for me to roll my own wifi pineapple with a laptop and an alfa wireless card? A gentoo pineapple, if you will. Is Jasegar's primary functionality just basically from Karma? The project looks defunct, and most suggest Karmetasploit.

I did a lot of work with airbase-ng and and alpha card before I got my first pineapple.

The ONLY reason I went with a pineapple in the first place was becasue I was having throughput issues with the alpha card driver in BT5r1. The max d/l speed with an alpha card and BT5 r1 rtl8187 driver was 1.3MB/s. So to learn the tech all you need is the card and some time. If you are interested in trying it out I have some pretty basic scripts that I had good luck with.

Just buy an open mesh and flash it with gargoyle and configure it for ICS, IMO this setup is very stable and capable of everything the Pineapple does minus Karma, and Karma still needs a lot of work.
