The wifi coconut. This is about a two hundred dollar pen test tool. When I looked this morning, it was sold out, so it doesn't list the price. But historically, it's been listed at two hundred. Sometimes as much as three hundred, but, you know, that's from third party vendors.

So instead of hopping around and trying to sniff packets, I just listen to it all because it's got fourteen parallel the wifi nicks inside of it, and that's its default configuration is just broadband monitoring.

However, those are network interface cards that can be reallocated to other functions. I can I can simply run other types of attacks on this very capable parallelized type of attack toolkit
