I suck at hacking Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I have tons of these: KARMA: Probe Request from 78:e4:00:05:51:6b for SSID 'TROLOLOLOL' Karma never makes a successful connection though, any idea on how to fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suck at hacking Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 are you on 2.8.1? Sorry, forgot to add. 2.8.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathdealerxx Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) There's a beta firmware, 2.8.1, it should fix the problems with karma. https://wifipineapple.com/?portal&home Edited May 11, 2013 by deathdealerxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want that to happen, but I'm willing to try anything. Before I try, anyone else know what might be wrong?

deathdealerxx Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 That was my post, it had nothing to do with the new firmware. I've been running on 2.8.1 for a couple days and haven't had any problems with stability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathdealerxx Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 The clients have to have connected to a previous unsecured network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpoeticg Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) I was scared from what happened to deathdealerxx too, but I can confirm that I haven't had a single problem with it either. It seems like that was just a fluke thing that had nothing to do with the fw. Don't be scared to flash it. There is nothing in it that causes bricks. And I'm also new to OpenWRT/Jasager/Karma. You don't have to be elite to contribute back to the community by helping test the fw. Just flash it, test what you're asked to test, and type out how your tests went. Nothing unreasonable or difficult is asked of you. Edited May 11, 2013 by kpoeticg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did upgrade to 2.8.1 and everything has been working smoothly except for one thing, but that problem is a module and nothing to do with the actual firmware upgrade I believe. The issue is that wifi jammer keeps on trying to use wlan0 interface no matter how many times I select wlan1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shutin Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Maybe uninstall wifi jammer then? I donno. I can add that the new beta has NOT bricked my router. It's safe. The reason you are seeing those people probing but not connecting is that they are probably probing for WPA/WPA2/WEP networks and not OPEN ones. I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that's why. KARMA isn't going to work on those so it doesn't bother trying to impersonate them. the way karma "gets" people is that they hopefully have a list of trusted, previosuly connected-to networks on their computer like this: MyHomeNetwork - WPA2 MySchoolsNetwork - WPA ThatCoffeeShopIJoinedOnce - OPEN Karma will impersonate the coffeeshop one and the probing client will connect to it because it's the only one available (or the one with the highest signal) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I suck at hacking Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) I tried uninstall and reinstalling the wifi jammer but every time it keeps on trying to deauth on wlan0 instead of wlan1. My wlan1 device is a netgear wg111v3 I finally got my phone to connect to the pineapple, but the internets doesn't work. I opened up wire shark and see this error: Who has 192.168.1.1? Tell 192.168.1.149 Edited May 11, 2013 by I suck at hacking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hkbeejay Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I read quite a few threads when we were hoping or expecting Karma to impersonate. Would have been good if the log can show which probe is for an open network? Or is that not possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Just updating this to say this has been reported fixed in 2.8.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
