Presence detection
Working on detecting when my phone enters and leaves the Wildsong AP. Presence detection
Wardriving
Setting up a Raspberry Pi to do some wardriving (or warcycling or warwalking?) Will probably use an Alfa 802.11b/g/n adapter from Rokland.
- Horst = Highly Optimized Radio Scanner Tool = low footprint
- Kismet = been around longer, more features
Testing on Pi 4 Tenrec today with sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep SSID With the Alfa I see 35 stations. On the built in wlan0 I see 9. So, Alfa it is.
To-do:
- Install and test Alfa (DONE)
- Install and test Horst. Done but need to know more about it; logging? GPS?
- Install and test Kismet on Pi 4
- hook up a GPS
- remove the Pi 4 from the 7" screen -or- go with a Pi 3 -or- even a Pi Zero?
Can I run this software on a Pi Zero? I just want to log data, nothing else.
