[doc] Create clear USB vs WiFi Nugget software documentation

[robbpaulsen]

Hi, first of all big fan and just got my hands on my rubber nugget really like its design. On the issues topic

• I'm having a lot of mixed does, donts and what actually applies to my esp32-s2 rubber nugget and the wifi nugget.
• The second topic is on the to up to date flashing process and again is the mixed between the docs and your channel's content. Obviously because when I cant understand something from the documentation I look up for the channels content to see if Im messing something up or didnt actually understood.

Have a nice day, hope to get back from you soon..

Hi @robbpaulsen,

Thanks for being a fan :)

I'm having a lot of mixed does, donts and what actually applies to my esp32-s2 rubber nugget and the wifi nugget.

Understandable, we're working to increase clarity on the differences between the two. In the meantime, do you have any specific questions I can help you with? As for flashing, you can use these directions after grabbing the .bin from the release page.

Let us know how it goes!

Thanks for the replay, so I managed to what I think is the usb nugget, the device already appears on my file manager as 'CIRCUITPY' , but when I trie to copy the nuggetDeauth, nuggetinvader and nuggetPacketMonitor I cant seem to get it to run, none of them, then I tried to to copy the 5 payload repo but still same result, so Im stuck there now, and theres no low on storage. The bin files are there and cant acces the web interface.

I believe those projects are only compatible with the Wi-Fi Nugget (which I know less about), not the USB-Nugget @AlexLynd, can ya weigh in here?

Hey! Sorry I didn't see the issue earlier, but I apologize for the brand confusion around the WiFi & USB Nugget - this is one of the biggest problems we're currently fixing & documenting, since its one of the most frequent issues we get!

Our current product split is between 2 boards - the WiFi Nugget (for running WiFi attack & network defense tools) and the USB Nugget (for running USB attack payloads). These 2 devices have completely different WiFi chips on board and have hardware limitations.

In terms of supported software, the WiFi Nugget (ESP8266 based) can run the Deauther (a WiFi attack suite), the Invader (a network defense toolkit), and the PacketMonitor (a WiFi recon tool), but can't run any of our USB attack software. Similarly, the USB Nugget (ESP32-S2 based) only runs USB / HID attacks, and can't run any WiFi attacks or WiFi monitoring tools.

It looks like you purchased a USB Nugget, which is probably why those other programs aren't working on your Nugget :( I hope this clarifies things a little bit! Fortunately, we are working on adding some more cross platform functionality for the WiFi tools in the future - so stay posted for when we drop those :)

Thanks a lot for getting back to me. Ok now it makes sense why all the trouble, ok but its still a good board, Ill just focus on the actual docs of the Usb nugget and and pick a project down the road and see what develops. Thanks, and have a good day.
