Use the tools under `WIFI → ATTACK` for the task at hand. Each feature can affect a real connection. > [!WARNING] > > Use only networks you own or have explicit permission to test.

[Scan and select a device](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/features/wifi-scan.md) when the feature requires `Selected AP` or `Selected STA`. 2. Prepare a router and test device that you control. 3. Review [the feature-stop procedure](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/getting-started/controls.md#stop-an-active-feature). 4. Check [FILES → File Explorer](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/features/files.md#file-explorer) for free space if you will save a file. ## Deauth Use this to test whether a device disconnects from Wi-Fi and can reconnect. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → Deauth` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `All` | Disconnect every discovered AP. | | `Mass` | Disconnect multiple APs continuously. | | `Selected AP` | Disconnect only the selected AP. | | `Selected STA` | Disconnect only the selected client device. | Expected result: the test device may disconnect from Wi-Fi and attempt to reconnect. ## Whitelist Use this to exclude a device from disconnection during a test. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → Whitelist → Selected STA` 1. [Scan and select an STA](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/features/wifi-scan.md#sta--phone-or-client). 2. Open `WIFI → ATTACK → Whitelist → Selected STA`. 3. Verify that the selected device appears in the exclusion list before testing. ## Beacon Spam Use this to simulate many Wi-Fi network names and test how a device displays its Wi-Fi list. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → Beacon Spam` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `All` | Use names from previously discovered APs. | | `Selected AP` | Use the selected AP's name. | | `Random` | Generate random names. | | `Prefix` | Generate names with a prefix, such as `TEST_001`. | Expected result: the test device's Wi-Fi list may display many network names. ## Handshake Use this to record Wi-Fi connection data as a `.pcap` file for authorized network-security analysis. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → Handshake` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `Auto Active` | Automatically disconnect and capture a handshake. | | `Selected AP` | Capture a handshake for the selected AP only. | Before starting, check free storage and do not publish files captured from a network that is not yours. ## Evil Portal Use this to create an access point and a simulated web page in a controlled lab, for testing recognition of spoofed pages. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → Evil Portal` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `Default` | Use a built-in template. | | `Selected AP` | Use the selected AP name with the applicable template. | Never collect another person's password or personal information; use test data only. ## WPA3 The following three menus are under `WIFI → ATTACK → WPA3` on the device. ### Auth Overload Use this to send many authentication requests to an AP and test how a router handles requests. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → WPA3 → Auth Overload` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `All` | Send requests to every discovered AP. | | `Selected AP` | Send requests to the selected AP. | Possible result: the router may slow down or new devices may be temporarily unable to connect. ### Assoc Overload Use this to send many association requests to an AP and test concurrent-connection handling. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → WPA3 → Assoc Overload` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `All` | Send requests to every discovered AP. | | `Selected AP` | Send requests to the selected AP. | Possible result: the router may reject new connections or existing devices may disconnect temporarily. ### Force CSA Use this to test how devices respond to a channel-switch instruction. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → WPA3 → Force CSA` | Option | Purpose | | - | - | | `All` | Send the instruction to every discovered device. | | `Selected AP` | Send the instruction to the selected AP. | | `Selected STA` | Send the instruction to the selected client. | Possible result: devices may disconnect temporarily while finding a new channel. ## DNS Repeater Use this as a temporary DNS server to test DNS-request forwarding in a network you control. Menu path: `WIFI → ATTACK → DNS Repeater` Start this menu directly, then check the test device's response after it starts. ## Stop and verify the test 1. Use [the feature-stop procedure](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/getting-started/controls.md#stop-an-active-feature). 2. Confirm that test devices can reconnect to Wi-Fi normally. 3. Restart the router or device if it still behaves unexpectedly. If the screen does not respond, see [Feature will not stop or screen is frozen](https://c5tako.zipher.space/en/help/troubleshooting.md#feature-will-not-stop-or-screen-is-frozen).
