Hello,
Totally newbie here. Tried multiple searches before posting. Thanks in advance.
Have the NOK 5G21 TMobile cellular router with about 120Mps download. The TV stops & pauses a lot, and I want to get the cheapest 2.4 and 5g WiFi router to look with WireShark or something at the devices on the network. I believe I need that "promiscuous mode?"
I would just use it for occasional troubleshooting, by plugging it into the NOK5G21 then going though this new device for 1h while I look at the traffic.
Currently, the interface on the cellular receiver/wifi (5G21) sucks. It only show the names of the devices as their last 4 of the Mac address. It has almost no statistic data. Zero data about any one device in particular. I can't even tell if they are all legit devices, ie not the neighbor's?
I only want to spend < $40 ish. It's that possible? Recommendations of routers that support Wireshark mode, cheap and have that 100/1000/ wan/lan stuff that's greater than my 120Mbps speed? Thanks!!!
It's in the best location. Only 2 bars, sometimes 3
Thanks,
James
