digip Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 a program that monitors the wirless netowrk and tells me if someoneis using it ?Are you talking about seeing if someone is using your wireless network? If so, you can just log on to your router and display the DHCP Client Table and see who is logged on. Quote
ls Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 correct me if I'm wrong but i think you can also use netdiscover for this , or is this just for wired networks ? Quote
Justin Ewing Posted February 11, 2008 Author Posted February 11, 2008 yea i want to mnitor my wireless network on realt time , and it telling me when someone is using it? is there anything out there that can do that Quote
digip Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 There are lots of things that can scan a network. If your router is doing the DHCP then you can use a scanner to scan the IP range given by the router using somehting like nmap, but can sometimes not get a reply from pc's who block its scan. The easiest way is to log on to the router and see what ip addresses have been assigned to users on the network and you can then use the router to disconnect them. There are so many programs out there, you just have to search for them. One thing you will want is something that can discover devices based on the MAC address. If you do a scan but ge tno ip address, a scan that searches for the MAC address should return a device on the network if its connected. Also, use mac fitering on the router to restrict access to just your pc's mac addresses and no one can log on (unless they clone your mac address :) ). Quote
SomeoneE1se Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 wtf airsnort!? how does that tell you if someone's on your wireless?! airsnare is what you want Quote
Sparda Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Just use nmap. That can't tell you any thing. Quote
SomeoneE1se Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Just use nmap. That can't tell you any thing. lmao yeah just use nmap and when you use it guess at the correct command to use Quote
SmoothCriminal Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Well not specifically wireless, but won't nmap -sP and an IP range tell you what you need? Quote
SomeoneE1se Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Well not specifically wireless, but won't nmap -sP and an IP range tell you what you need?no because most computer don't respond to ping a much better way would be to ARP scan just about every computer would respond to a ARP request Quote
