psydT0ne Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Something i spotted on hackaday. http://hackaday.com/2008/09/14/passive-networking-tap/ Where could we apply this (silly question maybe but hey...a topic for discussion)?? Quote
Sparda Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 You could modify a WRT54G to have both taps straight on the WAN port. The 2nd tap would go from the physical WAN port to the switch connected adapter. The WRT would also need loads more storage and probably should compress the packets as well. Quote

DingleBerries Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 college dorms or hotels. The lower floors cat cables usually run parallel so opening the wall jack and examining could prove to me beneficial. Just splice one cable and add connector to each end. Then plug one end into the tap and the other into you lappy and the other into the internets. sniff away. Ive been meaning to make this but havent yet had the time. Quote
DingleBerries Posted September 24, 2008 Posted September 24, 2008 I think i am going to make a few passive network taps. If i could get at least one other person to do the same and help me brain storm i think we could have a hak5 community project? Quote

Make sure to check out this article, which I referenced in my post linked above: http://www.altsec.info/passive-network-tap.html Quote
DingleBerries Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I just finished mine.. Less then 20 dollars.. I am going to use the board of other projects.. Took me less then 10 mins to make.. Dont pay attention to the wire colors. Quote

DingleBerries Posted October 5, 2008 Posted October 5, 2008 Is it working pretty well for you? I havent had the chance to test the TAP ports yet, no more cat cable. But the Host ports work fine.. Cant wait to test it.. Quote
