Hi all, I'm running the following tshark scan to get MAC/SSID/signal dbm from probe requests:
On a Raspberry Pi. The results are nearly always partial packets, generally just the signal dbm and occasionally an SSID, but pretty much never a MAC address. When I run the same scan on my Macbook Pro in the same room, it generates all three fields for every result. I assumed this was a weaker wifi adaptor on the Pi, so I bought a Linksys AE3000 adaptor (and a couple of others to test), and got the same results. Have tried running the adaptor from a powered USB hub, same result. The Pi is running from a power supply, not battery. Anyone experienced the same thing, or have thoughts on why this is? asked 19 Mar '15, 08:13 youcloudsofddom |
One Answer:
Solved: discovered that the current build of tshark that Debian runs does not support wlan.sa_resolved, hence the 'lack' of data in the packets! answered 22 Mar '15, 02:33 youcloudsofddom |
