the wireless LAN SSID's are being broadcast openly on the vehicles.
if anyone gets hold of the WEP key, maybe can change the message on the LED's in the buses.
not all buses broadcast theirs, but it may be a good way to identify which buses are in the vicinity. anyone wants to do a next bus arrival system with this? -
what you talking about???

He's talking about those next-stop LEDs, I suppose. Somehow, they receive their information through a wireless network, and if you have the correct wireless network equipment (that thing above looks like a screenshot of the menu of Apple's Airport's software menu), you can actually "tap" into it and...Originally posted by stooper:what you talking about???
I think it won't be long before some l33t h4ck3r h4x0rs t3h 5y573m ("leetspeak" for "leet hacker hacks into the system) .
And ^tamago^, I figured out where you could have been when you got hold of that: Orchard Road

(TIB 539X, TIB 543H, and TIB 1062Y are perms on routes 106, 190, and 700 respectively) -
I also saw the SSID when I switched on my powerbook on a IKEA shuttle bus operated by SMRT. Haha. At first I was surprised and I thought that "wireless@SG" is going to be implemented on SMRT buses!Originally posted by ^tamago^:old thread....

but it's WEP-secured ad-hoc network.... not easy to get laptops with old wireless cards that can be set to promiscuous mode to sniff the packets out. -
they can easily do so with 3G-enabled routers. but then.......... SBST buses are better equipped to do so, though u might have to justify the costs and such.Originally posted by autumncs:I also saw the SSID when I switched on my powerbook on a IKEA shuttle bus operated by SMRT.

at the interchanges, the routers uses "vpisXX" as their SSID. for e.g., the one at bt panjang is "vpisbp". -
My friend got WEP/WPA key hacker, tell him to try first.
Lets try...
