RaLink RT2570USB Enhanced Driver

RaLink RT2570USB Enhanced Driver
* Prism header can be toggled via iwpriv, no automatic changes which screwed up packet captures!
* MAC changing supported
* Support for Fragmentation Attack

Fragmentation support is now considered as stable. 1.5.0 version has some important fixes for kernel version 2.6.19 and above.

For further details on the fragmentation attack see the paper from Andrea Bitteau: http://toorcon.org/2005/slides/abittau/

The serialmonkey CVS repository updated its driver from a new RaLink legacy one. Version 1.6.0 is the modification of this driver with fragmentation support, MAC changing and prism headers enabled by default. This driver seems to fix some threading, some SMP and some endianness issues. So it should be more stable than previous releases. Go get it!
Version 1.6.1 works for 2.6.22 kernels and comes with some more stability improvements.
AND NOW FINALLY:
Version 1.6.2 with a new base version from serialmonkey CVS, all the patches from the previous version and support for 2.6.26 kernel.
Version 1.6.3 adds kernel 2.6.27 compatibility. NOTE: You may also try the mac80211 drivers included in 2.6.27 since these drivers are pretty nice too ;)

Creating A Cheap Bluetooth Sniffer

Many papers and posts on internet forums have commented on the success of turning normal everyday bluetooth USB dongles ($10), into their more powerful counterparts that allow the capturing of packets from the airwaves. These more powerful USB dongles are usually sold at a much higher price ($10,000) together with the software to drive and control these devices. The problems associated with BlueTooth sniffing You cant simply just purchase the dongle with the alternate firmware. There is next to no real opensource packet capture program for the bluetooth protocol. Hardware & Limitations Chipsets: Whats the difference? The chipset of the Bluetooth USB Dongles are very important. Broadcom chipsets are cheap hardware and are deemed unsuitable devices for this paper. But unfortunalty nowadays, every manufacturer seems to prefer putting these chips in their products compared to the more reliable Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR) chipset. If your lucky enough to find a dongle with a CSR chips...

ALFA-AWUS036H & ALFA-AWUS050NH INSTALLING/UPDATING DRIVERS RTL8187, r8187, RT2800usb on UBUNTU

NOTE: For surfing Internet with ALFA-AWUS050NH on Ubuntu Jaunty with rt2870sta driver, you must use the Kernel "2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu", without change or updates the drivers modules. NOTE: The tutorial is not related to Ubuntu karmic. Driver RTL8187/Stacks-mac80211 (ref. ALFA-AWUS036h) - These drivers, for surfing Internet, are more stable than r8187, and fully compatible with Network-Manager 0.7 installed by default on Ubuntu 9.04. Network-Manager 0.7 installed by default on Ubuntu 9.04. - Supports all encryption without problems. (OPEN, WEP and WPA/WPA2) - With Compat-Wireless, the "injection" working, but for support “Fragmentation attack” (opt. -5) you need to install one patch. - The RX sensitivity and packets injection is less, related to drivers r8187. Driver r8187/Stacks-ieee80211 (ref. ALFA-AWUS036h) - This driver is recommended for use with the Suite of Aircrack-ng, but not particularly suitable for Internet connections, as less stable and disc...
