drforbin Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I just received my new pineapple vII and am having problems. I am getting a a warning about setting time that it is misconfigured. also when I get a connection the unit is very very slow with forwarding packets? I have tried ALL the software versions any ideas guys? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DF00 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 There is a function in the system settings to have the time sync'd with the browser - if the browser allows it. That will help with the time connection if not connected to the internet. I feel we are at the early adopter stage or otherwise known as "we will feel the pain of new hardware and software phase 0" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 What about the problems with client speed slowdown etc. This thing is not working properly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I have just been testing with using the wlan2 interface to provide internet access to clients. The throughput makes the device unusable at the moment for me. The wifi I am connecting too is using decent unifi access points and the internet connection is around 250 Mbps for clients directly connected. If the client connects via the P7 the speed drops to 0.3 Mbps which makes the internet unusable. Any client that does connect, will soon disconnect due to terrible internet performance. Hope this can be resolved via a software update Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I did the same speed test with Nano. With the nano I am getting just over 10 Mbps, so it's more than 20 times faster @Darren Kitchen could you look into this issue? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

davidb62 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Did anyone else try a speed test on a test client connected to the P7? What kind of throughput do you get? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Same problem guys...THIS must be fixed. It's unusable currently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 also when 'broadcast ssid pool' is checked it really slows things down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Kitchen Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Thanks for the report @drforbin - we can surely take a look at what's going on with the slow down when broadcasting the SSID pool. More details will be required so please post the contents of your SSID pool as well as the debug log which may be found from the help page. With regards to throughput, the MK7 should have about the same wireless client mode speeds as its predecessors. The focus has always been on balancing the hardware for its core functionality (identifying devices vulnerable to rogue ap/performing recon/new campaigns). If higher throughput is necessary for your application consider USB Ethernet or tethering/ICS. As others have mentioned, the notification about setting time is for your convenience. Clicking the notification will give you the option to sync the time with your browser, or you can wait after connecting the MK7 to the Internet, at which time it will sync with NTP.

drforbin Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 Darren, Thanks for writing me back. I'll try and get you debug log, but the contents of ssid pool does not matter. It can be even one ssid. As soon as broardcast ssid is checked it for all purposes halts forwarding of connected clients. It seems to work OK, not great without broadcasting enabled. As for time. I can connect with a AP (have internet connection) and sync with browser and the time config problem will go away only to return about 10 mins later. The device seems very very buggy! thanxs 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Darren Kitchen Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 How are you connected to the MK7 when the slowdown occurs - over USB Ethernet or WiFi? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 For me I get the same result from using both USB Ethernet and Wifi for the client internet connection. As I mentioned before I did the exact same setup with the Nano and it was around 20 times faster Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 I'm connected via 802.11, but the same result with USB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

drforbin Posted October 2, 2020 Author Share Posted October 2, 2020 please do something! this product is not working properly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I have found in testing the following: If I connect via the Open Access Point, then there is no issue with network performance. I am getting around 13Mbps If I connect via an SSID that is broadcast by PineAP then the network throughput is very slow and unusable for the client. I am getting less the 1Mbps This is using the latest Beta 4 of the 1.0.1 firmware @Darren Kitchenif you need any more information, please just ask. I really hope this issue can be solved in the first patch. Not being able to use broadcast SSIDs from PineAP sort of defeats the object 😞 Thanks in advance! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted October 4, 2020 Author Share Posted October 4, 2020 This is exactly what I am experiencing. The unit is useless in this state. Please let me know what can be done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 @Darren Kitchen Any updates for this issue? Please give us early adopters some love 😍 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 YES please. This needs to be addressed. Thank you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I got hold of another P7 and it has the exact same issue 😞 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drforbin Posted October 11, 2020 Author Share Posted October 11, 2020 david62, Any ideas? The thing is unusable Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davidb62 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 (edited) I made a couple of tests. I am using wifi to provide the internet connection to the P7 There first screenshot show the throughput when connected to the Open Access Point The screenshot shows the same device throughput when connected to the Broadcast SSID from PineAP It seems like the throughput is dramatically lower when the client is connected to the Broadcast SSID from PineAP Can anyone help! Please! Thanks David diagnostics-report.txt Edited October 15, 2020 by davidb62 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Erik91 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 hey Darren, I just got my shark jack in the mail and everything was going smooth until I tried to ssh into the shark jack. It said network error: connection refused?? Is there a certain reason this is happening? And also I cant find my shark jacks interface anymore that first time was the only time it got that far?? Love your content man, hoping you have some wise words of wisdom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IP changed? i did find windows can play with IP sometimes if your using windows. If so i had better luck when forcing the required IP manually for arming mode. https://docs.hak5.org/hc/en-us/categories/360002117973-Shark-Jack Edited October 16, 2020 by Just_a_User Quote Link to post Share on other sites
