Would anyone like to help with a strange project?

We could start with one that host a IRC server. I have some code that would work for that. I need someone to write a script fie the device. I have some specifications I need. -

He's the one providing the rPi's lol. Also SBT, how about you get an XMPP client, addy and OTR then PM me those details because i have the feeling that if you set up that IRC server it'll just be you and me anyway. Might as well be more secure about it. -
2019-09-16 at 10:07 PM UTCWell send me a unit, I'll clamp it onto a gigabit connection in a fancy office with ISP setup.
But we all know that's not happening. -

Actually don't, as I don't know how the firewall is set up there.
This is just a bad idea from start to finish. -

lol wut when I get paid tonight I'm ordering like 50 of them -
2019-09-17 at 3:14 AM UTCoh looking at the datasheet that one doesn't have ethernet or wlan which would add significant costs. wtf is a FBGA though? Fully Brogrammable Gate Array?The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

IF open or weak network is detected, connect and use as internet connection
create secure network to extend to other rpis in area
that way you could automatically extend network range by hiding rpis strategically; if one gets found or is moved you can simply put another one in the general area and it'll automatically assume the missing one's position in the chain
potentially you could use arduinos or ESPs or whatever as cheaper relays but I'm not sure how good their WLAN stacks are and you'd be limited as to what you could run on the relays themselves
I don't really see the point of setting up a mesh network, for what? The value here is access to the hotels network to sniff out guest data/hack them or to use their WAN connection for a proxy.
I suppose it would be good to have a few devices in a location for redundancy/increased bandwidth or processing power and they could mesh for coordination but it's not strictly necessary. -
2019-09-17 at 9:56 PM UTCI might be interested in helping if I get access to the resulting services.

I was thinking for almost impossible to trace proxy routes. can't think of much else really.
anonymised distributed services across a wide geographical area might be an option but raspberry pis (especially the zeros linked above) don't have a whole lot of processing power for that -

2019-09-18 at 5:26 AM UTCyou don't need a mesh network for anything really, I was just trying to think up ways his project could be used and I like the idea of a self-healing redundant mesh network

Well of course. It'd be a team effort, so we'd all get access.
The hotels bandwidth could be used for automated task, the hotels IP address could also be used(which likely wouldn't be banned from most services).
It's a strange project indeed. But I just want to do it for fun. Like I said though, I stay in hotels regularly, even tonight and likely next weekend. I could do it on my own but I thought it be interesting to bring some people along for the ride. -
2019-09-22 at 11:06 AM UTCI got some modules for my rPi Zero that increase it's USB capacity, which is all you need fir WLAN, i flashed Rasbian to the SD with my smartphone and it works just fine, you just SSH into it while it's on WLAN.
Anyway, rPi Zero or ones with more CPU aside, if anything we should run a Rapid7 style deep web Project Sonar on this network. That'd be dope. We ought to build a web interface and an API as well, and then we can properly hack the planet automatically.
And before you say: Why not just use Shodan & Co, i already did, -
2019-09-23 at 3:16 AM UTCI'd like a BASH script that continuously scans for WIFI networks and connects to the target network unless a specific on is available(this one I could run from my phone if I need to go the the area and do any maintenance). It also needs to spoof the MAC every 24 hours and reconnect.
I think a rPi Zero W running Raspbian Lite would be a good start. I'm planning on using the USB port for a usb wifi adapter to be used as the primary connection.
Each one of these can be different though. We could even do a small camera on one...
I'm concerned that the power may go out or the device may be unplugged and it could corrupt the OS. It'll automatically boot once it receives power but if it's corrupt I'd have to try to get the room again to retrieve the device. Is there anyway to lessen the chance of corrupting the OS during a sudden power outage?
