shifty2112 Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 I have been searching the forums and finding some older threads that seem to be outdated with the newer routers. I would like to build my own Pineapple so I can learn the whole process. Could easily just purchase the device, but I am a big DIY guy. So, I seem to have found for the wireless card, go with the ALFA AWUS036NHA, Router I am not sure about. What is the standard people are gettig nowadays? I looked into the Fon 2100 and the AP51 which look pretty reasonable priced on Ebay. Any tips? tricks? list of hardware you have tried? Quote

Anton Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 You wan't to pickup the hornet-ub aka alfa ap121u without a shell, if you're from the uk you can pick up a hornet-ub of ebay for a reasonable price. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hornet-UB-Atheros-802-11n-Embedded-Board-AR9331-Alfa-Network-Official-UK-Seller-/380463591557?pt=UK_Computing_Wireless_Routers&hash=item589565b085#ht_6088wt_1037 - Anton.

Sebkinne Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Ordered one just now from http://store.jpgotte...rs/alfa-ap121u/ Thanks guys. I will post back when I get it. Ordering the http://www.ebay.com/...=item589515b53e too. That should be all I need correct? Yes, that should be all you need. Providing that it comes with OpenWRT flashed already. I know that some Alfa devices come with the default Alfa firmware. To flash that with the wifipineapple firmware you will need a UART serial cable. You will find more information on the forums and wiki about that. Best Regards, Sebkinne Quote
