Good day Steemians ❗Today I'm gonna teach you a wifi trick applicable (only) on PLDT WIFI networks which is one of the wireless network provider here in Philippines I guess that I've discovered two(2) years ago that helps me a lot with my studies and hoping that it would be a great help with you all also but before I start this tutorial I would like to clarify that;
I'm not neither a sort of hacker nor consider myself as a hacker because I've access someones privacy but instead I called myself as explorer. Why? because when my curiosity activates with a specific thing I love to explore it. Study it's nature. Study it's structures. And come up with a theory that would support my researches.
So, please give me all your attentions as I briefly discuss step by step the procedure of this wifi trick that I've discovered.
⚡ Objectives:
✔ Know the definition of WIFI and how it works
✔ What is Mac Address
✔ How to identify a Mac Address
✔ Application of learnings at the end of this tutorial
☀ Lets define WIFI
Wi-Fi is the name of a popular wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to provide wireless high-speed Internet and network connections. A common misconception is that the term Wi-Fi is short for "wireless fidelity," however this is not the case. Wi-Fi is simply a trademarked phrase that means IEEE 802.11x.
How Wi-Fi Networks Works?
Wi-Fi networks have no physical wired connection between sender and receiver by using radio frequency (RF) technology -- a frequency within the electromagnetic spectrum associated with radio wave propagation. When an RF current is supplied to an antenna, an electromagnetic field is created that then is able to propagate through space.
☀ What is Mac Address?
You would wonder why I include Mac Address in our discussions? the reason is that it is the main ingredients that I will use to hybridized to the default password later on in the trick.
Media Access Control Address (MAC address) of a device is a unique identifier assigned to network interface controllers for communications at the data link layer of a network segment. MAC addresses are used as a network address for most IEEE 802 network technologies, including Ethernet and Wi-Fi. In this context, MAC addresses are used in the medium access control protocol sublayer.
Example of a mac address
⚡LET'S GET STARTED⚡
But before I start let me first enumerate the tools I need to accomplish the tutorial.
✪ Needs ✪
⓵ Android Smarphone
⓶ Software Application (Wifier)
Android Smartphone is a cell phone running the Android OS. A typical Android cell phone is a smartphone with a touch screen interface, multiple connectivity options, Internet browsing capabilities, support for video playback and a camera.
Wifier - is a type of software application that would let us display or show us the mac address of a certain wireless network.
✎ Procedures ✎
Step ⓵:
Go to ➠ Google Play Store and search and install an application which is Wifier.
There are lots of software application that are similar to wifier but I highly recommend this application because it allows us to see nothing else but the mac address alone of a certain wireless network that is being scanned by our smartphone in our range.
Step ⓶:
Go to ➠ Settings and turn on the location.
It is necessary to turn on the location of our device for it is recommend with the android version from android 5.0(Lollipop) to android 7.0(Nougat) in order to scan nearby wireless network specifically (PLDTHOMEDSL)
Step ⓷:
Go to ➠ Wifier app and click the button in the upper right side of the screen to start scanning.
We should click the button in the upper right side of the app in it's screen so that our device will start scanning wireless network specifically (PLDTHOMEDSL)
Step ⓸:
In the menu screen of the wifier application it displays the network's name and below it's name is it's mac address.
The mac address of a certain wireless network are composed of numbers and letters which is unique only in the network itself
Step ⓹:
PLDTHOMEDSL is the only one we I can hack among all the networks that are scanned. Look to the mac address of this network and (get the last 5 digit of it's mac address) in this network it is 7737D.
Why PLDTHOMEDSL only among all the networks scanned can be hacked ? simply because it uses the default password of the network
Step ⓺:
Go to ➠ Settings and click wifi to input the password and it will be (PLDTWIFI7737D). The word PLDTWIFI is the default password and the last 5-digit of the mac address which is 7737D will be hybridized with the default password to complete the password of the wireless network amd there you go , you are now connected.
Note: This trick is not only for PLDTHOMEDSL network but also to other networks related to PLDT, so patience is the key for you to be able to connect to a wireless network for free.
⚡ Actual videos as proof ⚡
❶ First video (network: PLDTWIFI.)
❷ Second video (network: PLDTHOMEDSL_CCMCCOOP)
❸ Third video (network: PLDTMyDSLBiz)
In this third video as you can see it didn't displayed as CONNECTED but for me it is just due to full of users connected in the network. As you can see it displayed " Obtaining IP Address " thus, It is connected to the network.
