Pineapples Questions

[Scale]

Hey everyone,

First question, is it possible to make a DHCP reservation?

So instead of having to force the IP 172.16.42.42 (and afterwards removing it again) it would just get it assigned.

Second question:

Any suggestions for a powered usb hub? Two ports would be enough to tether and have a usb for storage connected connected.

Third question:

Can the pineapple handle running tcpdump and sslstrip at the same time?

I seemed to work however tcpdump said it dropped a bunch of packets.

Thanks!

Beware of backfeeding the pineapple with power from a usb hub.

Many in the community use the Belkin F4U040V http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Belkin+-+4-Port+USB+2.0+Powered+Hub/2389094.p?id=1218324435232&skuId=2389094&st=belkin%204%20port%20usb&cp=1&lp=8

Theres a good resource that I used to learn more about powered usb hubs and other hardware http://elinux.org/RPi_VerifiedPeripherals it does refer to Rasberry Pi but great starting point.

Thanks,

Thanks Pizzafries,

Do you happen to know the barrel width of the power port? So i can get appropriate matching usb power cable.

np,

I dont know the barrel width but this is the cable I believe you need, comes with all the connectors.

Im using the Logik L4THUB10, it reportedly backfeeds.
