Network Technocracy: A Tale of Monitoring, Spoofing, Intercepting and Social Engineering
summary
A user forced to keep ISP-provided SOHO gear reclaims a personal segment by cloning the MAC clone, assigning a static IP, and swapping in a MikroTik replacement; passive sniffing uses an internet splitter plus a crossover cable and two NICs to capture device-to-ISP traffic; nginx proxies the router web UI and injects a JavaScript logger to grab the plaintext Wi‑Fi password during a support-call change; method captures credentials in real time and leaves the device undamaged.
