Signal strength data

[fayeinmay]

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to get the signal strength data of wifi devices somehow?

[AlexandrErohin]

Hi Could you check what route is used to open this router's page? go to browser's Inspect window > Network tab

[fayeinmay]

I think by route you're referring to the URL? It would be http://192.168.0.1/webpages/index.html?t=ea3f7fe8#networkMap

[AlexandrErohin]

Could you clear logs, select XHR and again go to wifi clients page?

[fayeinmay]

[AlexandrErohin]

could you run this script and post the results?

from tplinkrouterc6u import TplinkRouter
from logging import Logger

client = TplinkRouter('192.168.0.1', 'yourPassword', logger=Logger('test'))
client.authorize()
print(client.request('admin/smart_network?form=game_accelerator'))
print('---')
print(client.request('admin/wireless?form=statistics'))

[fayeinmay]

Seems like it's not the game_accelerator stuff.

None

[AlexandrErohin]

Could you post the request to admin/smart_network?form=game_accelerator that you catched in browser? In screenshot you have opened Headers, please copy info from Request tab

[AlexandrErohin]

there is the wrong characters in the end of your string

[fayeinmay]

Weird. I corrected the comment.

[AlexandrErohin]

Try this one

from tplinkrouterc6u import TplinkRouter
from logging import Logger

client = TplinkRouter('192.168.0.1', 'yourPassword', logger=Logger('test'))
client.authorize()
print(client.request('admin/smart_network?form=game_accelerator', 'operation=load')

[fayeinmay]

Output was None

[gordonaspin]

you need "operation=loadDevice"

from tplinkrouterc6u import TplinkRouter
from logging import Logger

client = TplinkRouter('192.168.0.1', 'yourPassword', logger=Logger('test'))
client.authorize()
print(client.request('admin/smart_network?form=game_accelerator', 'operation=loadDevice')

it returns an array:

[{
        "index": 22,
        "trafficUsage": 12581880,
        "deviceType": "other",
        "remainTime": 0,
        "deviceName": "device-name",
        "key": "446132B6F7CE",

        "ip": "192.168.0.219",
        "rxrate": 433333,
        "timePeriod": -1,
        "deviceTag": "5G",
        "signal": -52
    },
]

@gordonaspin Thank you!

[gordonaspin]

It's a pain. You have to decode the operation. The way I do it is put a breakpoint on the XHR matching the URL and a breakpoint on the decryptData function and use the console to call the decryptData function with the encrypted post data. Is there a better way ? I was thinking maybe to write a proxy server as a man-in-the-middle.

[AlexandrErohin]

@gordonaspin yeah, I do the same

Is it possible to decode this string?
