overwraith Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Hello all, I have been thinking about buying a pineapple, thought I would ask a few questions first. I am a college student in computer programming, and I have learned several languages such as Java, C++, and some scripting languages. I have also had many classes concerning networking. I have also read some hacking oriented books, but do not know much about professional hacking, like pen testing. My main question is given what I just told you would the wifi pineapple be something I could easily learn? Has anyone else made a thread like this already?

Mr-Protocol Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Most of the pineapple is understanding the advanced networking that is happening when running specific tools. From there you should be able to troubleshoot most issues. Programming background also helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pax0r Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 if you like operating systems, if you like linux, if you like networking, openwrt is fun and easy. will learn a lot about networking with pineapple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mit0s1s Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I say buy it. It's relatively cheap. Same as a couple fancy dinners out with the old lady. The pineapple GUI is very straight forward but then you get sucked in and spend many hours diving in deeper, as deep as you want. The pineapple has been more of a learning tool for me.

King Crimson Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 ::agrees with Amylase:: Great learning tool. I recommend embracing the command line for better understanding and then appreciating the infusions for ease of use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overwraith Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 (edited) I have also been on the USB rubber ducky forum a lot, and made some payloads, although I am sure the command line stuff for the pineapple will be different, I don't think it will be an issue. Thanks for the replies everybody! Will check back in case anybody else has any useful info on their experiences.
