This is cool. Unfortunate in some ways that it has an AR6003 wifi, since ath6kl (the OS driver for the AR6003) doesn't have monitor or promiscuous mode support yet which means no sniffing or injection.

Because if it did, it would be an interesting choice for pen testing. You could recase it, and it's small enough that properly installed and configured, it would be difficult to find. Processor is fast enough to get some cool tricks going.

Of course, it's possible some clever kernel hacker will get those working on the AR6003 at some point, which would open up this, as well as a bunch of devices, to some cool uses.




A pen testing pen.
