Mother Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Hello I have the Nano and following the instructions from But I cannot get clients to connect. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinny Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 It could be due to 100 different reasons. Could you give more detail? Are you wanting to capture unassociated or associated clients? Are you trying to Deauth a client? Do you want any client to connect or a certain client to connect? Are you posing as an AP that is using WPA2 or as an open AP? It's hard to help without a scenario.

Mr-Protocol Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 An easy thing to check, go into the PineAP settings and make sure the check for "Allow Associations" is enabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AP is using WPA2 Something isn't adding up here. If the device you are trying to snag is unassociated, then there is no need to deauthenticate it from an access point. Furthermore, if you want the client to automatically connect to a spoofed SSID via the pineapple, that target device will have needed to associate with an SSID of the same name in the past. Otherwise, you will need to wait for the user to manually connect to your pineapple. Another thing to consider is that if the legitimate access point you are trying to spoof was WPA2 protected, then the pineapple will not be able to participate in the 4-way authentication handshake with the client. Therefore, it is easier to trick a client to connect to the pineapple using common, open access, SSID names such as hhonors, attwifi, or Starbucks.

Mother Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 OK I think I understand now. The AP is WPA2 protect so that is why it is not working. Also, I misspoke, the clients are associated the AP. Thanks - Still learning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
