Using a MicroSD Card
The MicroSD card slot is used by Marauder for multiple things, such as saving PCAP files, Evil Portal config files, and Wardrive files. It can also be used to update your version of Marauder.
There are certain MicroSD Cards that are not compatible with the ESP32, such as some Samsung MicroSD Cards, which will not mount to the ESP32 or can cause crashes. SanDisk MicroSD cards are known to work.
The MicroSD Card needs to be formatted in FAT32 to work with the ESP32. MicroSD Cards 32GB and under are commonly formatted in FAT32, but you may need to reformat your MicroSD Card to FAT32 to work with the ESP32.
MicroSD Cards over 32GB will not be formatted in FAT32 and will not work out of the box with the ESP32. You can try using a tool like guiformat to format them to FAT32 but it is not guaranteed to work.
You should insert the MicroSD Card into the board face up. You can then start the WiFi Marauder app. The ESP32 will create a folder on the MicroSD Card called "SCRIPTS".
You can update Marauder though the MicroSD card slot on the board.
- Put the old_hardware.bin file into the Root of your MicroSD card and rename it to "update.bin"
- With the board powered OFF, insert the MicroSD card into the board.
- Open the WiFi Marauder app and scroll down to "Update sd"
- Marauder will update and reboot automatically when finished.
You can only update Marauder through MicroSD. You can not flash Marauder onto the ESP32 if Marauder is not already flashed.
