|
|
|
|
NO `fixed channel 1` issue.
|
|
|
|
Successful hcxdumptool driver test `hcxdumptool -i <interface> --check_driver` and capture packets `hcxdumptool -i <interface> -o test.pcapng --filterlist_ap=targets.lst --filtermode=2 --enable_status=15` `(hcxdumptool -i <interface> -o test.pcapng --filterlist=targets.lst --filtermode=2 --enable_status=15)`.
|
|
|
|
Connecting to AP with WPA3 (WPA3-SAE) authentication method (IMPORTANT: Test distro Ubuntu 22.04 kernel 5.15 - NetworkManager 1.36.4 nmcli tool, version 1.36.4. Otherwise use wpa_supplicant).

|
|
|
or
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Raspberry Pi:
|
|
|
|
Edit `Makefile`:
|
|
|
|
Ln143 - CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = `y` to CONFIG_PLATFORM_I386_PC = `n`
|
|
|
|
Ln144 - CONFIG_PLATFORM_RPI_ARM = `n` to CONFIG_PLATFORM_RPI_ARM = `y` for ARM
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
Ln145 - CONFIG_PLATFORM_RPI_ARM64 = `n` to CONFIG_PLATFORM_RPI_ARM64 = `y` for ARM64
|
|
|
|
### DKMS installation

### Monitor mode
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo airmon-ng check kill
|
|
sudo ip link set <interface> down

|
|
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager (sudo service network-manager restart)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### TX power control
|
|
|
|
Note: Set TX power before start SoftAP mode. `...set txpower fixed 3000 = txpower 30.00 dBm`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo iw dev <interface> set txpower fixed 3000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Driver options
|
|
|
|
#### Change driver options during inserting driver module
|
|
|
|
Remove (unload) a module from the Linux kernel.
|
|
```
|
|
sudo rmmod /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Insert (load) a module into the Linux kernel.
|
|
```
|
|
sudo insmod /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko rtw_ips_mode=1 rtw_drv_log_level=4 rtw_power_mgnt=2 rtw_led_ctrl=1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Change driver options loading from file
|
|
|
|
Create a file `8188eu.conf` containing `options 8188eu rtw_ips_mode=1 rtw_drv_log_level=4 rtw_power_mgnt=2 rtw_led_ctrl=1`.
|
|
Copy a file to `/etc/modprobe.d/` directory.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo cp -f 8188eu.conf /etc/modprobe.d
|
|
```
