How to Take Down a Wifi Network from Within

In this video we cover how any PC on a wifi network can stop all traffic and bring the network down. We'll cover why wifi is susceptible to this attack due to its shared access nature, and show you the command needed.
The tool we'll be using this time is hping:

Note to everyone else 7:23 since they are running as root, they did not need to use *sudo* or *doas* instead the rest of the command

You’re right

[@BettersonMcgee]

Glad youtube is finally recommending me worthwhile videos! Love your stuff!

[@plaintextpackets]

Thanks!

[@sup-wesam6427]

you do great so useful Thank You

[@mrjakob853]

Are the IP-address you’re sending the packets to, the victims phone IP, or your own? Btw, love the video❤️

What is that ping app you have on the iPhone. I like the way it looks

[@plaintextpackets]

Ping v2.2.1

Great video! Loved the instructions. What kind of ethernet NAC should be in place? I know 802.1x is for wireless authn, but is that for ethernet too? I forget

[@plaintextpackets]

802.1x works on Ethernet and wifi

Can u tell me which kind of terminal is this ...that chocolate one....plzz hellp

[@foxxrider250r]

Also, does MU-MIMO on wifi routers change any of this?

[@plaintextpackets]

MIMO routers are still half duplex though different data streams are split between the antennae. Iis possible that your flood would only egress one antenna and not all. However, all of the antennas share a “bridge interface” which logically connects the wired interfaces of the router with the wireless ones, and is in effect a single bottleneck. So this attack would likely choke the AP there

[@foxxrider250r]

@@plaintextpackets oh wow! Awesome. Thanks for that info. You do a great job of explaining things in your videos. Keep them coming

[@plaintextpackets]

No prob! Try it out sometime (at home or in a controlled environment)

[@bonnefe9943]
