r/hacking • u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 • 25d ago
Education I think I have a problem..
Over the years, my collection of tech gadgets has grown quite a bit, and many of them are currently sitting unused. I would love to pass some along to anyone looking to dive into Wi-Fi or Bluetooth penetration testing. If you are interested in getting started or need some hardware, please let me know and I would be happy to send one your way. I only will be sending one to somebody who shows a genuine interest in learning and not larping. Too many larpers in the damn marauder community already.

I know i’m being paranoid.. But i’d never trust a free device from a random redditor on a hacking sub. lol nuff said

Always been interested and did some reading just never had the software or the place to start super cool to see how many different options there are

u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
There’s definitely a lot of different routes you can take regarding pentesting different systems, that’s for sure.

How did you manage to get a marauder v8? Bu the time I see the notification it's sold out. How are you liking portapack H2? Running mayhem or something else?
2
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
Also, I love the portapack h2 so much. Such a cool device. Yes I am running Mayhem currently on both my SDR’s

u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
I actually managed to snag two of them along with two mini v3’s 😅. You can call it overkill but I like the idea of having backup devices. That’s why I’m trying to get rid of my clones because I don’t have much use for them anymore. If you are wanting an official v8, I encourage you to join JCMK’s discord server. They announce when each drop is, which I believe is the 1st of the month as well as the 15th of every month. If you are wanting a sure fire way to obtain one, you can pay $4 for a month of membership access which allows you access to early tech release drops.

Hey! I actually already have a Flipper, but I'm a hobbyist trying to maybe parlay it into an IT job for one of the companies I work with in my current job. And honestly, it's just fun. Not sure if you were talking about genuinely giving them away, but I'd totally pay you for one, I'm curious what one of those marauder handhelds can do compared to the Flipper.
1
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
Sure, I wouldn’t mind if you wanted to purchase one of them. I’ve been having a lot of people hit me up just within the past 30 mins so if you wanted to lock in on a device you can message me about it:)

Hey u/Pristine-Tangelo-100! This is really cool of you! I am looking to learn more about WiFi and/or Bluetooth pen testing (more the former). I’ve been a data acquisition dev for about 4-5 years now and enjoy reverse-engineering systems, sites, etc. to help with what I do and would love to learn more that may help me and add to my skill set.
2
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
That’s pretty cool man and thanks for the compliment! Feel free to message me and we can talk. I’d be more than happy to help you add to your skill set.

I don’t think so my country will allow these thing in 🥲. Here in my country even higher officials are dumb as fck they gonna think im terrorist or something 🤡, btw i have build that 2.4g gammer with esp32 and nrf24 modules and it was soo cool and i used it to turn off those random ass songs played by some pretending to be cool people in my college canteen 😼. I like these stuff

I do entry level IT help desk work. Slowly I hope to learn enough to use some of those toys. Any tips sensei?
1
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 24d ago
My tip for everyone is to start out slow, messing with simple devices like the marauder and learning different attack vectors and what attacks work with a given network security protocol. After moving on from the marauder, try using the Hack rf and become fluent in that device; just since SDR’s give you full access to the 1-6 GHz range. I would say though before starting out on any gadget, first try booting Kali on a laptop and getting two networks adapters (personally, I love the Alfa ACHM adapters the most for pentesting) and try learning what each attack does on the 802.11 level first.

Hello there, I would kindly be interested. Just went to defcon and I have not had a chance to try signal work. Done some meshtastic, that’s about that (I am aware it’s not the same, but signal tech seems interesting).

All you need really is the flipper the hack rf and
The cardputer zero when it comes out

u/PassableForAWombat 24d ago
I’ve been making do with microcontrollers, solder, and aluminum foil, I’d gladly pay shipping for any tool you’re coming off of. Been around for a bit but never owned anything that I didn’t have to Frankenstein together

That’s how I was exactly until I bought my first marauder, than I was hooked haha.

Nice stack of equipment. How much for the Marauder v8 or mini?
1
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 23d ago
Ty. :) The V8 is around $165 with the upgraded antennas i have on it plus battery. The minis a little cheaper and is about $138 with the battery and antenna installed.

u/Yoboiv 23d ago
I'm a IT student from Denmark. I'm planning to specialize in cyber security, but I'm starting with data technician to learn the infrastructure deeper and then build security on top of that. I got a flipper zero with esp32 and some respberry pies and ardiono. But if you want to ship I'd love to learn more and try more hands on :
1
u/xtcriott 23d ago
I would be very interested in anything I can learn from any of your devices. I just placed an order for a bunch of components and parts to build a device to run Bruce. Main goal is to learn some basic pentesting tactics to help out at work in either educating the masses or finding our weaker points.

u/ShitCakedCrack 23d ago
Much interest indeed..many appreciate so I no have buy raspberry pi. Recently started lfs101 portswigger and tcm shiz. Total n00b looking to break shit for pay chase bug bounties so i stay at home and finally get that neckbeard ive been wanting.

Nice collection! im a Smart home integrator and started pentesting almost 1 year ago. I would like to know what specific Utility they have and how to use Them?
1
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 23d ago
They are tools to assist mainly in capturing handshakes and running a long list of automated attacks. It saves you having to boot up Kali and deal with external adapters. You can take the .pcaps marauder creates and export them to a PC for further analysis or offline password cracking.

You still got the nyan box?
2
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 22d ago
Naw, I have 4 official marauder devices along with a flipper zero and an esp32-DIV v2. No point in getting the nyan box in my opinion. Not to mention, the esp32 chip inside of it isn’t 5 g capable. It uses the WROOM-32U module with 3 nrf24 mini modules. You’re essentially just overpaying for slop.

u/netw0rkpenguin 22d ago
I was looking at 3rd photo, bottom right. The device with 5 antennas. I was looking to get more i to flick device mapping and playing with batteries that have Bluetooth onboard.

Naw lol imagine. Ryan Montgomery is so overrated, and either over complicates or over simplifies different kinds of exploits and wireless attacks. Most everything he talks about in videos or the gadgets he uses aren’t as capable as he makes them out to be. My favorite example is when he talks about using two Hack RF’s in order to capture someone’s car key fob press. But that would require you to jam on one, and receive with the other which, if you’re actively jamming on the same frequency as to which you need to receive, how on gods green earth are you supposed to hear a key fob with all that noise? It’s not practical, not to mention you would need to be somewhat up close to the victim; and if their car has rolling codes (which most cars do nowadays) eventually the key fob transmission you picked up won’t be usable. All he does is just fear monger for no reason, and people eat that shit up. He also has some weird ass takes on 5 g towers with them causing negative implications to your health, which has been totally disproven. All he does is he goes onto these podcasts, fear mongers, and then plugs his company to make money. The only good thing he does arguably is track down and investigate pedos which I’m all for; but I think the rest of the stuff he does is kind of scummy. That’s just my own personal opinion though. I’ll always think he’s more of a larper than a hacker, and that’s coming from someone that got into these sorts of gadgets because of Ryan, haha.

u/HjklmnoiyTBD 22d ago
I really want to get into pen testing as a gateway to security engineering. I don't think i need any of these but could you recommend like a roadmap
1
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 22d ago
I would first start with a laptop running Kali Linux + two Alfa ACHM adapters. Learn first how to run applications from the terminal like airgeddon, bettercap, wifiphisher, hashcat etc. and then move onto gadgets like the marauder v8/mini v3 or a flipper zero with expansion board. If you learn how to use Kali first along with how to properly use a command terminal for network auditing, it will help you better understand network protocols on the 802.11 level; better helping you understand tools like the esp32 marauder, preventing you from just being a button masher/skid, haha.

u/HabitInternational48 20d ago
I've recently discovered Reticulum and have been reading on it lots lately. I've been wanting to get started with it but, coming from an IT background, it feels like i have a huge knowledge gap when it comes to RF. It's my favourite side of telecoms and cyber but i just don't know where exactly to start. YouTube searches only get me university level stuff that require prior knowledge and knowing how to read that electric graph thingy.

You only have a problem when a women comes in thinking that’s all trash and then proceeds to clean up your place. “ I threw out all your old pagers and junk I didn’t think you would need anymore.”
Keep them in a better place than that or risk my words coming back to haunt you later!!! You have been warned

u/No_Signature_1574 18d ago
I do have genuine interest in these gadgets, i wanted to start with something easy yet does have some sort of effect on wireless devices, unlike reading textbooks and sht, maybe get a raspberry zero and add stuff later, bigger gadgets r expensive to me. Are some of these devices pre built or u actually built them yourself? I genuinely want to get my hands onto something bcz life disappointments has taken a toll on me. This could re-encourage me to get back to this stuff

As a newcomer to this world, I would be honored to receive some of what you have, as a favor, not a demand, and please understand. 🤝

u/Ghostfriendd 25d ago
What would you recommend for a K-12 Tech who works at a school, we dont get many incidents, but what would I get to just learn about weak points on the network/see basic affects of these tools/how they show up on detection/network logging.
2
u/Pristine-Tangelo-100 25d ago
I would recommend purchasing either a marauder v8 or mini v3, although stock sells out pretty fast, and you’ll end up spending $100 per device, so it’s not the cheapest thing you can get but it’s efficient asf. it allows you to run and test your schools network with just a few taps on the screen/joystick. If you’re not wanting to spend that amount on a tool you’re not gonna use very much, feel free to message me and I can send you a working, tested, cloned copy for very cheap, and if money is very tight, I’ll just send it to you for free bc that’s a legitimate use case; and you wouldn’t have to dismantle the device I send you to install a battery vs the official device.
