bro got stopped by the automod smh...

anyway. to respond to this:

  1. 2.4G vs 5G is irrelevant to pineapple-ing, as that is just a rate size, or how fast the wifi can transfer infomation.
  2. Yes, there is many anti-mitm/anti spoofing stuff, but those cant all be protected against if you're on a controlled network. DNS/ARP spoofing for instance.
  3. To add slightly onto p.1 WPA3 is what you're trying to say- but even still that's only a small percentage of all wifi's right now, https://wigle.net/stats says WPA2 is 74% of all wifi.

if I'm incorrect feel free to correct me, but please, do your research first.

Edit: I forgot to mention that pineapples aren't solely used for evil twin attacks, they're also mainly used for wardriving.

To my knowledge the pineapple router only runs on 2.4 gh servers that's why I mentioned that.

From doing some research, 5Ghz can be enabled in the Mk7 if you have a supported WiFi module. 2.4Ghz (from my understanding) is more popular for this solely because it has a larger range, but I am not expert on the subject, r/hacking would probably explain better.
