gravityzero Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I am just wondering, is there a way to create a script or modify a particular config file on the pineapple to designate fake MAC addresses? They seem to change back to original address very quickly. It gets annoying trying to keep up with them. I had this same issue on certain Linux OS's where they would reset during a connection, which is also not ideal. There is a work around for the Linux OS to make the MAC address at least remain as set throughout the session. I will put this info below if others are interested. If you forget to stop and start the network-manager service, your MAC will change back to the original address at any given time. Don't know if there is something similar for the MARK V. service network-manager stop ifconfig eth0 down macchanger -r eth0 ifconfig eth0 up service network-manager start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 You can modify the /etc/config/network file to your liking. See the OpenWrt wiki for more information (specifically the macaddr field). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravityzero Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 I make the necessary changes through vi. When i try to run command "./network reload" I keep getting a permission denied. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not going to work. /etc/init.d/network restart That'll do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravityzero Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 Thanks a bunch. I will give it a try. I am going to probably modify the file at my leisure and upload through ssh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Editing the file on Windows may add carriage returns and can cause issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravityzero Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 Yes. I know all about that. I usually use my KALI virtual machine to edit, drag to my PC, then filezilla to the device. I've also found that editing directly from filezilla usually works too. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
