also, the "any" wifi network is misleading since you have to be connected to the the wifi network which for most networks implies knowing the password.

- nikisweeting 11y agoNot necessarily, if you know the channel you can create a network on the same channel and then flood that one with noise. It should cause a bunch of packet collisions and retransmits which would slow down the victim network. Haven't tested this yet, so this is pure conjecture, I don't actually know if this style of attack works. If someone does try it please do post back.
- dogma1138 11y agoThat's not how wifi works you better off buying a cheap sdr and just transmit actual noise.
- nikisweeting 11y agoYes, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a simple code snippet with few dependencies. I don't know much about 802.1 and how it deals with noise, you're probably right about it not working. As I said I haven't tested this specific attack and have no clue if it has any effect.
