N800/N810 USB hacks: TV and Ethernet

tip came into my Email from Harriv (Thanks!) showing me this thread on InternetTabletTalk. User sgoerg got DVB-H television to work on his N800! It's a fantastic post and an even more interesting thread. In this particular post, he explains what is needed. I was unable to reach Stefan before publishing this, but I hope to do a more in-depth feature on it soon. The photo above is his.

In case you missed the software/hardware you need to get USB Host functionality working on your N800 or N810, check this post.


A reader requested I test out a USB to Ethernet adapter on the tablet. I did as requested, but was unable to get the network stack to recognize it. The screenshot below shows more information.


My guess is that it would take a lot of manual configuration even if the kernel or modules supported the USB to Ethernet device directly. That particular USB Ethernet adapter is my favorite as it has worked on every machine and operating system I've tested it on to date. In fact, I used it to bypass some strange firewall issues in Mac OS on a Parallels virtual machine by simply having the virtual machine take over the USB Ethernet adapter.

Sniffing SSL traffic using MITM attack / ettercap, fragrouter, webmitm and dnsspoof.

Before reading on this guide is for educational purposes only. I take no responsibility from what people do with this info. First thing is to get fragrouter. I don't know if you can use other tools provided with the backtrack, there are 100 ways to skin a cat and this is just my way. http://packetstormsecurity.nl/UNIX/IDS/nidsbench/fragrouter.html There are lots of things that you can do with fragrouter but we are going to use fragrouter to setup IP forwarding. We do this with this command : Code: fragrouter -B1Squash that window and put it to one side. Now open another shell and we will start dnsspoof with this command Code: dnsspoof -i ath0 (or whatever network interface you are using)Again put that window to one side and lets load up webmitm. Webmitm will issue our ssl cert to the victim so we can decrypt the traffic we capture. Start webmitm by typing Code: webmitm -dNow we can start the arp spoof. To start ettercap type Code: ettercap -T -M arp:remote /router addy/ /victim a...
