I am trying to do trilateration to find the geo location of a client sends packets to my APs.
One of the devices is the router, and other 2 are aps connected to lan ports of the router. i put 192.168.1.1 for the router’s gateway, 192.168.1.2 for the first ap, 192.168.1.3 for the second ap. And I turned off the dhcp in both aps but router. Also I set their channel statically, to 11. And I set the same ssid for all and placed them in three corners of a room. And a laptop in the middle of the room will try to deauth a client from one of the ap by running deauth attack. Now, how do I see the signal power of the deauth frame reached to all aps from the attacker?
Someone said I should capture the traffic from 3 of my devices (2 aps and 1 router), so i should use them in monitor mode according to that.
but isn’t there any easier option? my APs aren’t that good ones, i am sure they can’t run openwrt.
what about using the aps in bridged mode or with mesh technology?
I need your help, thanks in advance.
(Important note: I don’t need a professional or a flawless way, I just need to have something that works time to time. 🙂
