![]() ![]() my 3view box was accessing my wireless router via my laptop. Then, after a bit of messing about with IP addresses it started working. In Windows XP I bridged the NIC to the Wireless adapter, then plugged in a cross-over cable that linked the 3view box to my laptop. In my case I didn’t have 2 network cards, but did have a laptop with one network card, and a wireless card. I decided to do a Machine in the Middle (MITM) ‘attack’ which was documented over at the Wireshark wiki. Buying this 3view box gave me more of an inventive to expand my knowledge & figure out how to capture the traffic from other devices. I know about using tools to sniff network traffic, but have only done this to sniff traffic coming directly out of the PC I’m running the capture software on. As with most high-end set-top-boxes (STB) it pulls software firmware updates from the web, and I was interested to see where it went to get these updates & how it knew they were available. It has a whole host of features and can be considered a “connected” device. I’ve recently bought a new Freeview HD box from 3view. ![]()
