Newbie assembled GPS receiver

[Kevinnz]

Hi there,

I'm a noob Pineapple owner and I want to do some wardriving with my Pineapple, but I didn't have a GPS receiver until now. I had an arduino (Leonardo) and an Adafruit GPS receiver (http://www.adafruit.com/product/746) sitting around so I wired them up, connected them to the Pineapple, a little bit of reading on the forums here about configuring kismet config and what do you know? I've got a great little wardriving machine.

A couple of things I learnt:

1. Leonardo is on /dev/ttyACM needed to install package kmod-usb-acm

2. Pineapple boots with date 01-01-2014 ( with firmware 1.4.1) so I had to write a script to pull the date & time off the GPS before starting kismet.

Here is a picture

Cheers

Kevin

Great work Kevinnz!

You are correct about the extra kmod. We are actually including it in the next build.

Regarding the date, the WiFi Pineapple MKV doesn't have a realtime clock, therefore the time defaults to 1970. Because this causes issues, we set the firmware to be on 1/1/2014.

Best Regards,

Sebkinne
