  • Does pwnagotchi work on zero 2
    3 projects | /r/pwnagotchi | 24 Mar 2022
    I was able to get pwnagotchi to work on the pizerow2 with AI mode. I basically used DrSchottky's image, then ran https://github.com/isthisausername2/pwnagotchi_rpi_zero_2_fix, then compiled the nexmon drivers on the device (https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon).
  • pwnagotchi scratch install on a Pi Zero 2W - attempt and fail
    3 projects | /r/pwnagotchi | 11 Mar 2022
    Now the default drivers for the Zero 2W wifi chip do not support monitor mode, but we can patch them with Nexmon thanks to the efforts of DrSchottky who added support for the pi zero 2w just days ago! His pull request was merged so we can clone the latest version of nexmon and install. So I did.... https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon
  • Pwnagotchi on Zero 2

    I believe support has been merged into nexmon though - So there's hope for proper support for pwnagotchi to land soon?

  • Can I use other fruits for pwnagotchi?
    1 project | /r/pwnagotchi | 20 Sep 2021
    so the major reason for the use of raspberry pi is support for seemoo labs(check them out because for wireless security research they do super interesting stuff) nexmon platform. nexmon is a binary firmware patching platform that is aimed at providing patches to allow mobile radio chips to do things the stock firmware does not support, ie it is named for providing monitor mode on a nexus phone.
