BaronMuenchhausen Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I recently bought my new wifi-pineapple MK7 Updated Firmware, everything else left stock - only installed some default plugins (nmap, tracer,..) Didnt have much time for tests but now i see that even the simplest pings take sometimes 2000ms or more in client mode ... unacceptable in stock mode... :( 😞 😞 (wlan2 client mode, wlan1 recon in normal scaning mode, everything else left untouched) nothing fancy tweaked in console install .... even a simple raspberry pi in forwarding is better - whats wrong .. is it a hardeware failure ... i hope my guarantee or <30 return policymaybe available ... captive portal test works fine but what does it help when after 3s in testing purposes a client disconnects due to unnaceptable speeds sending back might be no option as due to taxes it seems financially not worth or i just get glimpse back ... i hope the device is not damaged or poor quality i read some posts so far that this was common with the nano can sb help me what to do or a good idea would be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DramaKing Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 That kind of latency is not right. Can't immediately think of a fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaronMuenchhausen Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 update: handed in a ticke for support with aditional info like the sys-log.txt, also tested again with the aditional mk7-wifi-adapter, switching interfaces, loging into the config AP and the PineAP , nothing changed - still on average only 10% speed compared to the original wifi-router speed (e.g. 15Mbs AP Down, <= 1Mbs WifiPineapple , mulitple tests with android phone -> WifiP) Routing tables, forwarding all default and should look ok (in my humble experience) .... all in all if that is the performance of this product its very sad for me i saved my money could have sticked with my raspberries ... decided that product for a stable captive-portal testrun/audit ... i hope i can update here or get support with an permanent easy solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sifu128 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 (edited) Same problem here. Seems to be a 1/2 baked product with limited capabilities. Now sure how in the hell anyone can do any pen testing on this? I can't even get basic tests to work with out time outs. I am sure it has something to do with the client wireless connection only being a 2.4g connection which is worthless. Who in the hell these days walk around connecting to 2.4 g networks?? Edited April 2 by sifu128 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DramaKing Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 It's slow sure, but I don't get timeouts. Have you made sure that range isn't an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaronMuenchhausen Posted April 5 Author Share Posted April 5 it seems they know it and dont care - i feel tricked and have a bitter taste like a a rip off and fraud combined with the advertisement here is the answer i got - no personal bias , cause i like the team and glytch - but overall i realy feel ripped off, tricked and a bit like a customer fruad when the passthrough is that heavyly bad - even my 10y old raspberrie pi 3+ performe better with way worse antennas or even none in some cases, here as promes the reply:  Quote Hi < my name cleared >  The WiFi Pineapple is not intended to be used as a home router. Perhaps our community resources may be of more help with this application. I have linked them below.  https://shop.hak5.org/pages/community  Best regards, Glytch    never wanted a router (even though if u buy a amazon 100€/$ gli.net and custom firmware it - wifi pineapple software runs on it and this is a router... so ...yeah ... same price (i know bigger company...maybe ?? but hey... it feels so sad for me ... no solution... not propperly working device for the purpose it is marked) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
