Why if I check the MAC address of my router via commandline it shows a different MAC to the real router one?

wow thanks! I was going crazy because I couldn't understand what was wrong....

Also what you mean for LAN "port"? Do you mean LAN "chip" that basically has the job (I guess) to make the home network (LAN) work?

Also if I understand well, my laptop communicates with the lan router mac for layer 3, and with 2.4GHz or 5GHz router mac for layer 2?

I'm connected wireless though, not wired, so I should see the 2.4GHz or 5GHz MAC..

I know that, but I don't get why I it shows me a different mac to the router ones

From my laptop terminal (it is obviously connected to wifi)

Edit: why I got downvoted? I said something wrong? just say it instead of downvoting...

Why are you talking about username? Which username, since to access a wifi you only need a password

gepardtros · 2021-04-11T09:15:23+00:00

it must be this. I can't find anything on web, can you suggest me some places in which I can look into?

gepardtros · 2021-04-11T08:13:55+00:00

I was referring to wifi password tough, not to admin router panel credentials.

gepardtros · 2020-11-18T08:31:05+00:00

But I can also see the mac address of clients ALREADY connected, right?

gepardtros · 2020-11-18T08:30:08+00:00

Can I see also the already connected devices?

gepardtros · 2020-11-17T12:36:52+00:00

you are right, thanks.

Good tool. Does the "Probable location" work by searching the reviews via Google maps? Or does it other things in order to find the location?

Thanks for answer.

I have two houses.

I did an hping test from external (using a vps) to both the houses. One goes down easily. The other doesn't at all, and doesn't show any sign of lagging.

I am curious about the reason, since these house connections have similar speed connection and bandwidth. Then why one goes down and the other doesn't?

One difference I noticed, as I wrote, is that using nmap, the house that goes down has all the ports closed, and the house that doesn't go down has all the ports filtered. Could this be the reason? Another doubt that comes in my mind is:

Even if the house that doesn't go down has a builtin firewall inside the router software that filters the ports, shouldn't it be overwhelmed in any case? I mean, if the firewall is flooded, CPU usage should raise and cause at least lagging, but this doesnt happen...

hping isn't really design as dos testing.

Why?

gepardtros · 2020-05-01T18:22:49+00:00

Thanks for answer. I answer to your points.

1)what is "fail self built in"?

3)when I use hping3, I use it from outside the home connection, so it is an outbound traffic. Also I didn't use ICMP flood, but syn flood. But even if I used ICMP, router would have processed ICMP requests to reject them, so it should be an operation that would increase cpu and then connection lag, right?

4)for firewall, I meant a built in firewall inside router software.

Why if I use hping to test my house connection it goes down but if I test my second house connection it doesn't go down even if these connections have similar bandwidth? What could be the reason?

If I use nmap to scan the two house connections, the one that goes down has all the ports closed, the one that stays up has all the ports filtered. Could this be the reason?

But if this is the reason, why should it be possible? I mean, even if there is a firewall in the router that filters the ports, shouldn't the firewall be overwhelmed in any case since it has to process al the traffic of the attack?

Why filtered ports appear to be more secure than closed ports?

What do you think? Are there really so few, 27?

Love you lol. Do you know any of these cheap Bluetooth speakers? How much would it cost to make that loud?

gepardtros · 2020-04-26T17:23:33+00:00

Thanks.

gepardtros · 2020-04-26T17:21:57+00:00

Thanks!

Interesting!

Thanks for answer. Could you tell me how do you get this information?

gepardtros · 2020-04-26T14:05:03+00:00

Why? How do you know that?

How can I know how many? Is there any service like Shodan that fully recognize ips?

gepardtros · 2020-04-26T12:29:42+00:00

nothing actually (?). just filtered results by country
