- aelaguiz 13y agoIt wasn't a MITM. Although I've done that too, ARP flood the router and redirect the traffic through myself. Only works on sites where they didn't peer validate the SSL cert. These were just packet dumps, wasn't associated with the WAP. It's hard to remember the exact details but I believe I was dumping the packets and decrypting them with the WEP key then piping them into a C program which just applied the decryption key to the packets.

- qbrass 13y agoIt's catching packets heading to other clients to grab the information they don't send to you. Or it would be if it were put to use for evil.
