Many wireless enthusiasts are, in fact, connected with the ham community. Once solely the domain of a small group of Radio Frequency (RF) enginee, wireless gear has never been so inexpeive and accessible as it is today.With rapidly declining hardware costs, anybody can learn and experiment with 802.11 equipment with only a small investment. In this chapter, we review several wireless hacks, tricks, and hardware modificatio, including: I D-Link DWL650 Card modification for

For some, hardware hacking may be related to telephone experimentation, lock picking, or setting up model railroad systems. In our case, hardware hacking is defined as modifying hardware appliances or electronic products to perform functio for which they were not originally intended.This could mean anything from a simple software replacement to a complicated electrical circuit attack. Just about any piece of electronic equipment can serve as a candidate for hard- ware hacking. Particularly of interest to us are Peonal Digital Assistants (PDAs), mobile telephones, and hardware authentication devices (such as dongles, token cards, biometric devices, and smart cards). Other common targets are
