To those who work with wireless for a living...
I'm currently going through the mental insanity that is the current job market, combined with the inability to find a day off to take the CWNA exam in-person. To whoever at CWNP needs to establish a test center in Portland, OR, PLEASE find somebody at Portland Community College who can get you guys established with their many test centers! A 90-mile drive to Eugene is crazy!
Anyhoo - to those who work in wireless, whether with Wi-Fi or otherwise, how dependent is your employability based on where you live? I ask as I am 100% stuck in Portland, OR, due to my partner's job's golden handcuffs and life circumstances surrounding her mom. We love it here, but I cannot find IT gigs here paying enough to actually live here and am wondering if specializing in wireless as I had planned is going to really pan out. Having talked to a couple CWNEs, seems like a lot of the jobs are in the usual tech hubs - Seattle, Austin, SF, etc.
Are a lot of roles for those with expertise in this field not posted to job boards? Are all in major tech hubs, exclusively? Are there roles that use this type of knowledge with some esoteric job title I'm not searching for?

Please support my group’s video regarding WiFi reconnaissance in my campus
vt.tiktok.comWe conducted a “warwalk” around our uni campus. The purpose of this video is to spread some awareness regarding the WiFi security. Let’s support my group’s video. If you have any question or would like to provide more information or knowledge regarding the wireless lan, please feel free to leave a comment in the tiktok video. Thank You

What to do with devices on the same WiFi channel
School environment with 150 APs. we are using 2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz bands and channel widths are 20 MHz. All channels are set manually. We are seeing many (250+) devices that are transmitting on the same channels Printers, SMART Tvs and cars in the parking lot mainly. Is there anything we can do improve our service? With the large number of devices, it seems that adjusting my channels to not interfere will be almost impossible.

Ekahau CCI Reporting
Is it possible to generate a report of offending BSSID that cause interference coverage requirements to fail? Or is this only viewable from within AI Pro when hovering over a certain coverage area that fails to meet requirements?
Coverage requirements are set to 2/1/1 interfering AP @ -75dBm for all bands.

Looking for Wireless(BLE) to wired (BACNET /MODBUS/MQTT) gateway
Hello everyone
we are looking for a gateway which will capture input from wireless sensors and keypads and send that data over to our centralized controller/local controller via a wired medium over ethernet or serial communication preferably over any open protocol (MODBUS /BACNET/MOTT /REST api)
edit - so far we are thinking of using enocean based bleach sensors and keypads or any other sensors which might be easy to configure/work with any gateway
we can only use 2.4 ghz freq
Your response will help me a lot.
Thanks

Any Change to 802.11r Recommendations?
My understanding of 802.11r has been that it should only be enabled in specialized environments where all clients can be confirmed to support it.
Have there been changes to this recommendation in more recent times? I have seen a few clients enable it with no ill effects. In an environment with modern clients (like an office environment) have you started suggesting clients enable 802.11r?

Experiences taking the CWNP exams online versus in-person?
Hi all,
Looking to book my CWNA exam, but holy cow is the nearest test center not close to me in the Portland, OR area. Closest is about a 2 hour drive to Eugene. Most test centers appear to not be readily available on weekends when a drive like that could be feasible.
Any good/bad experiences taking the CWNP exams remotely?

Ruckus SmartZone controller – NAC SSH privilege/enable access failing
Hi everyone
I’m integrating a Ruckus SmartZone controller with Forescout NAC
The SSH connection itself works correctly from the NAC using the configured admin credentials and I can successfully connect to the SmartZone and get the normal welcome banner
The problem happens when Forescout tries to get privileged access after the SSH login
When I manually SSH using the same admin credentials everything works fine but when Forescout tries to enable privileged mode it asks for the password again and then returns failed even though I’m using the exact same correct password as the SSH login
I initially suspected that the SmartZone welcome banner might be interfering with Forescout’s CLI parsing or privilege detection
I tried to disable the banner but I can’t find any CLI command for it and I also couldn’t find an option in the GUI
Has anyone successfully integrated Ruckus SmartZone with Forescout or another NAC and faced this issue
Is the welcome banner known to cause problems with NAC SSH privilege detection or is there a specific configuration or user role that needs to be enabled on SmartZone for the NAC to get privileged access
Also when I SSH manually I log in with admin and after that when I enter enable it asks me to enter the same password again
Any idea what could be causing the privilege authentication to fail from the NAC while the normal SSH login works correctly

Market Research for CWNP IOT Certifications
I'm curious how many employers care about IoT wireless knowledge. I know that it's an emerging field, but what's the job market like for IOT in Canada?
I'm researching the field before I venture down the CWNP IoT path. I already have hands-on experience, and I'm working on developing a product. It would be nice to work with the technology professionally first, though.

FieldSurvey - OSS WiFi Survey Tool
galleryWe've developed an OSS WiFi survey tool with off-the-shelf hardware, including a couple of cheap USB dongles, a HackRF SDR, Raspberry Pi 4, and a small app that runs on your iPhone and communicates with the rPi over bluetooth. The iPhone app also streams live data into ServiceRadar (https://github.com/carverauto/serviceradar). We're working on a prototype custom PCB and looking for people that might be interested in helping with that, everything in this project is OSS, including any hardware we design. If you're interested in learning more drop me a line or join our Discord.
App will be available on TestFlight and we're writing a blog post that describes how to get this up and running and includes a BOM (bill of materials). Stay tuned.

Built a Wi-Fi deauth tool in Go, mainly because I wanted to understand how 802.11 actually works under the hood
Been meaning to properly learn how the 802.11 stack works instead of just reading about it, so I built a tool instead. Called it deadair.
Scans for APs and clients, sends deauth frames, but honestly the stuff I liked building more was around that part:
- captures the WPA handshake, dumps it in hashcat format
- passive PMKID grab too
- writes a live pcap so you can just tail it in Wireshark
- there's a WIDS mode that flips it around and detects deauth attacks instead of sending them
- GPS wardriving if you're into that
- little Bubble Tea TUI so it's not just a wall of logs
Go + gopacket. Linux only really, macOS blocks injection at the kernel level so it's sniff-only there
Standard disclaimer since it's a deauth tool: Educational/authorized use only, don't point it at networks that aren't yours
Mostly curious if anyone's dealt with similar channel hopping or sniff and inject concurrency stuff in Go and has thoughts on how I did it. Code's here: https://github.com/meetsoni15/deadair

Making wired portals wireless
So, ik this is a weird question, but my current setup dosnt really allow for me to sit close enough to the wii to change figures without getting up to do it every time. Ik ssa had a wireless portal, but that dosnt work on swap force or trap team. Would it be at all possible to use some small SOC and USB Bluetooth transever to make the signal travel wirelessly? I assume it hasn't been done before but I'm happy to work with a theoretical idea if anyone has one. I'm just not quite smart enough to try this out myself
