We will use three devices in our scenario:
- A laptop that is connected to the Internet with an available Ethernet port
- A WiFi Pineapple Mark V connected to the laptop via an Ethernet cable
- A Smart TV connected to the wireless network exposed by the WiFi Pineapple
First, we will set up a new WiFi Pineapple Mark V by connecting the laptop to it using an
Ethernet cable. For setup, we have to browse to http://172.16.42.1:1471 and we are presented with
the screen shown in Figure 5-7.

Upon clicking on Continue, you are asked to pick a password for the WiFi Pineapple.
Make sure to select a fairly strong and complex password. Otherwise, someone within your
physical vicinity may be able to connect to the Pineapple and potentially compromise your
data and other devices on your network.
