Very strange wifi network
by Fluer from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6R2G0)
Hello!
While scanning the surrounding Wi-Fi networks, I noticed one network that is sending out a lot of beacon packets. The command
Code:airodump-ng -d "BSSID" -c 1 wlan1does not show any clients connected to it."
This network is very strange. Different mobile phones connect to it almost every 10 minutes. ( I can see it in wireshark). The tapped network sends QoS packets of 64 KB to mobile phones."
The command
Code:mdk4 wlan1 d -E ESSID -c h outputs another access point (differing by one digit in the MAC address) and the hidden networks connected to it with length == 0 and PWR -1. Interestingly, the new access point and the hidden networks connected to it do not appear in Wireshark. Why could this be happening? Please explain this strange network redirection. Thank you very much!
