Paul and Larry's Top Ten List for Hacking Wireless Networks
1) http://openwrt.org
- As we have stated before, we love OpenWrt. There are so many great resources here for embedded device hacking, such as http://wiki.openwrt.org for documentation, http://forum.openwrt.org for a discussion forum on various embedded device topics, http://downloads.openwrt.org to get all the latest OpenWrt firmware, and of course the latest release "kamikaze" can be aquired at http://kamikaze.openwrt.org. Oh, and don't forget the wonderful Table of Hardware located here http://toh.openwrt.org.
2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WRT54G
- For all of the latest information on the WRT54G platform, go here. It is constantly being updates with new information.
3) http://linksysinfo.org
- A fantastic site dedicated to Linksys router hacking, including many articles and active forums.
4) http://seattlewireless.net/index.cgi/LinksysWrt54g
- The Seattle wireless group has been very active in WRT54G hacking, so check them out!
5) http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/Main_Page
- Not specific to WRT54G routers, but a fantastic resource to learn about embedded device concepts and the MIPS processor.
6) http://martybugs.net/wireless/openwrt/
- While a bit out of date, still a good reference for some WRT54G hacking examples and configuration settings.
7) http://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=31794
"An Introduction to Buildroot-ng" - To get you started on the OpenWrt SDK, refer this link. See also a nice presentation and paper by Felix Fietkau, one of the OpenWrt developers located here: http://events.ccc.de/congress/2005/fahrplan/events/1099.en.html.
8) http://openwrt.org/logs/
- Logs of chat sessions form the OpenWrt IRC channels. There is a lot of information here, and even some good troubleshooting information.
9) http://www.digikey.com
- If you want to perform any of the hardware hacks, these folks have every part imaginable. Their customer service is awesome!
