AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yes. It's almost as if it isn't receiving any data after it resolves the name. Opera and iceweasel both show similar results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Follow the TCP stream with wireshark. The browser gets redirected somehow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 I've restarted it now and it seems its back to not knowing where anything is again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 ok let me get back to being able to resolve names and I'll get wireshark going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 Currently, wireshark shows my laptop asking for google, to which the router responds 'there is no such name' and then asks 'who has 192.168.2.5' which is my laptop's dhcp assigned IP address.

i8igmac Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 You can open a second console and tail -f /var/log/kern.log You may find the wireless card is disconnecting It might be a WPA_supplicant conflict with another service Try a kali live cd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 Looking a little closer, I can see my laptop asking for safebrowsing.google.com.mynetworkssid. That is what my router says does not exist. Then my laptop asks for safebrowsing.google.com and the dns on my router replies, but my laptop seems to ignore it and ask again.

AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 ok the tail command returns a list of stats that look like antennae stats and then shows an IPV6 IP address conflict. the last two lines show the wlan0 device entering and then leaving promiscuous mode.

AirCooledFury Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 tried a live cd. it behaved the same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Dumb question, but what site did you download kali from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 This is the download address for the Kali that I have installed: http://images.kali.org/kali-linux-1.1.0a-amd64.torrent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Just wanted to make sure it was the official site, since there have been rouge sites offering modified downloads of the distro, which is why I was wondering if you are being redirected at the DNS level. One thing to try, verify the MD5 hash and that its a good download though, but I have a feeling there is something else going on just not sure since we can't see your setup or what you are doing. You use the wifi manager vs manually connecting, correct? can you try using a wired setup and plug into your router over ethernet so we can rule out it's not just some wonky wifi card issues? I'm wondering if your ISP sees your machines name though or a services on the machine and is blocking access/redirecting you. I would try hard coding OpenDNS into the settings for DNS instead of 8.8.8.8 which is googles DNS servers. You can also add them to your router so they get passed to Kali during DHCP request. Also if new to kali, know that you're probably running as root. before connecting to the internet open a console and just change the default password since it's publicly known (passwd command) and choose a new password. if on a live disc, should do this every time you login before doing anything else. If it works under wired, but not wireless, then I'd say it's something on the wifi side not configured properly in which I'd probably not use a wifi manager, and try clearing everything and connecting manually with wpa_supplicant(if your router is using wpa) and dhcpd. (is Dnsmasq installed by default these days on kali?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCooledFury Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Tried connecting via ethernet cable, everything worked great. Gonna assume at this point that it was the wifi card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Tried connecting via ethernet cable, everything worked great. Gonna assume at this point that it was the wifi card.Card may be constantly dropping and reconnecting, which it may be getting bad dhcp updated data and saying your lease is in use or something on the routers end. I think it may just be bad configuration or settings on the wifi side though, but if wired works, that's a good sign. Remember to change your password though. If SSH is up or any other services that can be logged into remotely(although you'd need port fowarding to reach in most cases unless you modem is also a wifi gateway) you have the potential to unlock you home lan to attacks.

i8igmac Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 try another access point. I have seen wpa_supplicant struggle with specific access points... Turn your phone into a hotspot if you need a extra access point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
