TypeError: object of type 'NoneType' has no len()

Using this this script with python 3.8.3 and python3-scapy 2.4.3 on Fedora 32. When the MiWifi Ac2100 router sends discovery the scripts crashes. I don't know where to search for the reason or to fix. Maybe somebody can give me a hint.

The problem is that the MiWifi route does NOT send a Host_Uniq tag. So the value of the variable host_uniq stays as "None". Fix is to add the following code before sendp is called

            if host_uniq is None:
                host_uniq = ""

With this fix the exploit is possible.

Thank you.
