Will this still collect hidden SSID's?
- st3fan 12y agoCorrect me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure hidden SSID's do not broadcast their network name and thus will not be found by a scanner.
- hackuser 12y agoNetworks with hidden SSIDs can be detected many other ways. A little searching quickly will turn up methods.
- hannosch 12y agoIt won't, see code here -> https://github.com/mozilla/MozStumbler/blob/dev/android/src/main/java/org/mozilla/mozstumbler/service/stumblerthread/blocklist/SSIDBlockList.java#L23 https://github.com/mozilla/MozStumbler/blob/dev/android/src/... The first check is "if we don't get a SSID, we don't collect". That's what happens with hidden networks.
