Router To Wifi Adapter

1. since i don't have WiFi adapters, i can't use air-crack or anything that needs to monitor or send packets. what i do have is bunch of routers lying around, i was wondering if i could turn them into WiFi adapters because basically, they are supposed to monitor, create WiFi. but i also do think that they are not two way. do i even need them to be two way?, i searched for OPENwrt and DDwrt firmware for them but couldn't, so if anyone has knowledge about this, please enlighten me.

2.How do i create login pages that appear automatically or atleast prompts user to login, when someone connects to the WiFi. so the idea is to make phishing login page (for educational purposes).

thank you.

You mean that you think your router does not receive and transmit? I'm surprised that you would even ask. You merely need to set them into bridge mode and connect to Ethernet.

Router firmware is not developed for phishing. Consumer models do not even have captive portals.

no luck for me, I'll have to buy some cheap network adapter. But I'll have to look more into captive portals, I have to make sure they open the phishing site, any way possible.

I meant recieve and transmit at the same time but why would we need it here even. That's why I said I don't think it's two way(at the same time)

Thanks for clarifying. This is called full-duplex. 802.11 includes MIMO, MU-MIMO, and OFDMA, but it is still only half-duplex.

Actually, simultaneously transmit/receive is enabled by MLO (Multi-Link Operation).
