5ghz support

[usuarionuevor]

Since someone else already made auto-channel check: https://github.com/CVino/fluxion_v2ChannelHop the only thing missing to make it fully functional and updated is support for 5ghz AP, when you can't connect to your 2,4ghz AP, devices will automatically switch to its respective 5ghz AP making all work done in 2,4ghz useless, the solution is to use a second chipset to create and deauth both AP.

The good news is this feature has already been done in latest airgeddon: https://github.com/v1s1t0r1sh3r3/airgeddon/tree/dev I tested with AWUS036ACH (rtl8812au) and 5ghz AP works perfect.

Since the bigger work has been already done for both to inplement channel hopping and to create 5ghz AP I hope you can do the same on fluxion (linset).

Well there is a kind of 5ghz support but currently it does not support the captive portal.

Fluxion's ability to penetrate 2.4Gz Networks is impressive. However, most, if not all new APs provide service at both 2.4GHz and 5GHz within the same network. So systems are increasingly operating on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz simultaneously. Clients jammed on the 2.4GHz band will simply switch to 5GHz, limiting the utility of a single-band attach. For an attack to be effective, clients will have to be jammed on both bands. I believe that offering a single 2.4GHz AP captive portal will be effective if the target AP is jammed in both bands.

Sometimes the APs have slightly different names "MyNetwork-2.4" and "MyNetwork-5". At other times the 2.4GHz and 5GHz share the same SSID. Clearly these dual-band networks operate using the same WPA password for authentication under both bands.

For an interim step, I think it would be fantastic if we could have dual jamming on 2.4GHz and 5GHz (one channel in each band) and a single evil twin AP in the 2.4GHz band.

The current menu does not allow for "dual band jamming" One has to select a single AP and channel as the target for both the (single) jamming and the rogue AP.

Any chance of this functionality rising to the top of the to-do list?

@voltaire1694 I'll try getting a 5Ghz interface soon so I can implement that feature, sorry for the delay.

This improvement is very important in these times, because the actual routers have two band (2,4ghz and 5 ghz) that works simultaneously, with different or same ssid; but i noticed they have TWO DIFFERENT MAC ADDRESS. How to solve this problem?

Best Regards

@aquilabianca8 You'd just have the secondary 5Ghz interface targetting the 5Ghz MAC address. On dual-band cards (a single card combining 2.4 and 5Ghz), I don't really know.

[voltaire1694]

Again, I don't think it's necessary to enable rogue AP functionality on the 5GHz band. Every client that has 5GHz capability will also have 2.4GHz as well. Adding a separate function for jamming 5GHz while simultaneously jamming a target in the 2.4GHz hand + Rogue 2.4GHz AP should be enough (for now) for Pen Testing dual band networks.

[MPX4132]

That’s not necessarily true, I have a pair of 5Ghz dedicated access points.

Hello.. Can anyone recommend a compatible card with Fluxion that supports 5 ghz?

I have the 036nha that works perfect on 2.4 but I can not perform efficient audits because it does not support 5ghz.

I can also get the Awus036ach but I read that it does not work well with Fluxion.

thanks

[voltaire1694]

I have an Alfa AWUS036ACH 2.4 & 5 Ghz on order, and it appears to be highly recommended by Kali. My intention is to run fluxion on two PCs simultaneously. One will jam and run captive AP on 2.4GHz band and the other will jam only on the 5GHz band. I haven't figured out if Fluxion will let me do the 5GHz jam-only function. If not, then I'll be submitting it as a feature request.

[voltaire1694]

Now that I think about it, if the 5GHz AP being targeted for jamming does channel hopping in the 5GHz band, does this mean I will need 2x 5GHz adapters: one to monitor the hops and one to jam? Grateful if someone could please confirm. Voltaire1694

[voltaire1694]

One additional note: It looks like if one does not need to "host" a captive AP on the 5GHz band, but merely wants to jam clients and force them to the 2.4GHz band, one might be able to use wifijammer-ng for the 5GHz band jamming and (on a 2nd PC) run fluxion for the 2.4GHz AP + jam attack. Has anyone tried wifijammer-ng for this type of dual-band approach?

5ghz support is now supported. Deauth and ap works. I submit this patch as soon as I can confirm that this is stable.

[gizmovt]

Hello,

Just confirming on the functionality of this improvement, does fluxion follow the channel on the 5g band if it is channel hopping? or does one need to keep track of that with a separate interface?

5ghz support is now supported. Deauth and ap works. I submit this patch as soon as I can confirm that this is stable.

Can you let me know what 5ghz wifi chip or model your use?

[shizzlepizzle]

any news concerning this? which 5ghz adapter would work with this? Got a asus usb-ac56 with rtl8812au but can't manage to deauth on 5ghz networks..

[dommod666]

i can deauth 5g it just doesnt want to let me host ap under 5g, 2 g works fine
