A Wi-Fi hotspot is required for Remote Access Audio Retrieval and Live Audio Exfiltrating.
The section below details the method to create a WiFi hotspot on a Windows laptop and Android phone.
These devices should be configured to use the values configured in the Settings file for “wifiSSIDname”
and the plain text passphrase used to generate “WPAPreSharedKey” in the WPA Passphrase generation
section.
6.1 Windows - Configuration of a Wi-Fi hotspot
A Wi-Fi hotspot can be set up on a Windows laptop in the following ways.
1) By running the wlan.bat script (provided on the “EXTENDING Tools” CD), with Administrator rights.
Use the Enter key to step through the script. Read all output to ensure the hosted network is
stopped, configured and then started again. PLEASE NOTE, THIS SCRIPT WILL NOT WORK

a. Airplane Mode is ON
b. It is run without Administrator rights
c. The Virtual Wireless Appliance is Disable in Device Manager
2) Alternatively run the command individually with admin rights:
netsh wlan set hosted network mode=allow ssid=*YOURSSIDNAMEHERE*
key=*YOURKEYHERE*
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
If you look in the “Network & Sharing Centre” a new Adapter should have appeared.
To control the IP address that is served by this hotspot you can change the following registry setting:
