RSSI with AR150

guidobiosca · 2015-11-18T21:37:24.000Z

Hello

I got an AR150 and trying to sniff wifi MAC/RSSI.

I’ve installed the well know python/scapy script to sniff wifi packets and I don’t get rssi values.

Anyone can confirm that through At9331 SoC is possible to get these values (MAC, RSSI)

I always get sig_str = -256

if pkt.haslayer(Dot11) :
if pkt.type == 0 and pkt.subtype == 4:
sig_str=-(256-ord(pkt.notdecoded[-4:-3]))
print “AP MAC: %s with SSID: %s RSSI: %d SUB: %d” %(pkt.addr2,pkt.info,sig_str,pkt.subtype)
time.sleep(1)

Thank you in advance

The python scripts must has some bugs. It doesn’t run correctly.

You can use airodump-ng or tcpdump directly and you will have RSSI info.

Hi, how did you manage to install python and the scapy package on the AR150 flash memory?

I always get errors of lack of space.

please use AR300M, which has 128M nand flash and python just install and runs.
