Wi-PWN is ESP8266 firmware for performing WiFi deauthentication attacks with a fast, responsive Material Design web UI. It includes an integrated deauth detector, WiFi client mode, packet statistics, and a translation engine.

Use cases

  • perform wifi deauthentication attacks from an esp8266
  • detect deauth attacks on my network
  • flash a wifi pentesting tool onto an esp8266 board
  • run beacon and probe attacks with a web interface
  • test wifi network resilience to deauth flooding

When to choose

  • you have an ESP8266 board and want an easy-to-use deauth attack tool with a polished web UI
  • you want a built-in deauth detector for monitoring
  • you need multi-language support

When to avoid

  • you need a legal-compliance-free tool for production networks - deauth attacks are illegal without authorization
  • you use modern ESP32 hardware rather than ESP8266
  • you need actively developed features - the project is in maintenance mode
