Hey all, I decided to sign up to the forum after being introduced to the WiFi Pineapple by a fairly well known US based hacker; he used one as part of a WiFi security seminar I attended 6 days ago. I placed an order for my own MK5 Pineapple the same day and it arrived yesterday, it took just just 4 days to process the order and ship from USA to UK! I've been glued to it with an evil grin on my face for most of last night and this morning so far - and am very impressed! :cool:

I found the HAK5 community from reading up on the web about the Pineapple, and it looks like a great place to hang out. I'll try to do my research before asking n00b questions.

Hello this is papadave, glad to be here. I hope you accept Senior Citizens 65 yrs of age.

I am going to buy the Mark V. But not sure If I should wait. Since I have read that a new version

is coming out, or an updated one. For mean time I will read all that I can. Hope in future I can

call upon someone if I run into any glitches. My location is Central Calif. Happy Testing.

Hey Papadave, about the Pineapple Mk5 issue, you can read this post by Darren about the issue at play here. At the top of that page is an answer by him going into a little more detail about the general cause of the problem.

What it boils down to is that of the 2 radios in the pineapple, one should not be used in client mode. Since a typical approach will involve one of the pineapple radios in client mode and the other in a different mode (say, AP), as long as you don't demand that the troublesome radio is the one in client mode, there's really no issue. They're fixing the problem regardless, from what I gather by offering you a new USB wifi adapter that plugs into the Pineapple as an alternate radio (my understanding, could be WAY off).

From where I'm sitting there really is no reason for you to not go out and buy one, but it's your money and they aren't cheap so if you choose to wait, more power to you.

The remake of 21 Jump Street is one of your fav movies?

I may have to take a look at it after all...

Worst. Advice. Ever.

The only redeeming facts cameos of nearly all of the original crew. Pity Dustin Nyugen didn't show up.
