Now this is what we all need when we have to transfer huge files and yet we dont have any means to use the sd card or transfer using the USB cable. Using bluetooth to transfer is pretty hectic. Wifi is much faster.
Here I use one ssh server from the android market and one client in my system. since I use ubuntu, the client is not an issue. But if you use windows machine, you can use a simple tool called scp.exe, a google search will take it to that download page.
0. connect both your computer and the android device to the same network.
1. Now as the first step, you need to install the ssh server in you android device.
2. Now specify a password. (Choose wisely as, if someone guesses this, they could get all the files from your device.)
2b. Better choose non default port as its is more secure. People will have to guess the port number also incase if they got your password.
3. Then start the ssh server.
4. Now goto your computer and open the terminal (linux) or open the scp file browser or whatever ssh client you downloaded.
5. Now if you have a GUI then you know what you have to do, just copy the files you need to the android device. (Usually copy from the left side panel to the right side panel.)
Or if you use terminal client you will have to type in some commands.
In My case the following command will copy all the mp3 files from the folder (/home/xpl0iter/.miro/Movies) to the sdcard. sdcard is the actual sdcard in the android device. You can use whatever path you need to, but for all the other path which is not sd card or the place we are not intended to copy the files, you will need root access. That means you will have to root your phone first.
Here is a video created by g0tmi1k on WEP cracking with Aircrack-NG.
How does this work? – ARP beacon is needed (depending on the attack method), so this can be re-injected back into the network. To get this packets the attacker needs to disconnect a connected client currently on the network (if the attacker keeps on repeating this part, it will be a DoS to the client). Once the key beacon has been captured and enough data injected/collected, it is now an offline attack either by brute force or a dictionary attack. Then its just a question of waiting then the attacker will have the key (brute forcing WEP can be less than 60 seconds!) From here, the attacker can use that key to decrypt the captured data from before, and now is able to ‘read’ it as well as join the network.
Starting from today you can simply goto a McDonald with your WiFi enabled hand-held and browse as much as you need. Yes from today they will not be charging you the $2.95 which was the charge for two hours.
This goes for 11,500 of its 14,000 U.S. locations.
A major Wiltshire town is to become the first in the UK to offer free public wireless internet access to its entire population, it was claimed.
The plan is to to have blanket “Wi-Fi mesh” coverage for all 186,000 citizens by April 2010.
BBC news reported,
If successful, there is an intention of working on similar roll-outs of the technology in other towns and cities across the UK.
Swindon Borough Council leader Rod Bluh said: “This is a truly ground-breaking partnership which will have real benefits for everyone living in Swindon.
“We’re doing it, we’ve done it, and we’re the first to do it.”
The service will also have the potential to provide free internet phone-calls and remote medical consultations.
According to a study conducted by Mobilesquared by 2011 the number of users of mobile internet will overtake the numbers of users who stick to the fixed line internet. The study was entitled “Taking the internet Mobile”.
Theinquirer reported about this,
There are predicted to be 42.5 million fixed line users in the UK by 2011, but the number of 3G devices alone will reach 36.3 million. Factor into this six million dongles and embedded devices and there’ll be roughly 200,000 more mobile Internet users than fixed line.
“Mobile will become the primary access point for brands and businesses communicating with its consumers within two years,” said Nick Lane, chief analyst at Mobilesquared and report author in a statement.
He also blames the lack of information available and costly price plans for the low numbers of people using their mobile Internet.
“The number of mobile internet users would expand even faster if mobile data pricing reflected existing models, such as variable pricing to appeal to the different demographics,” added Lane
