If you want to practice capturing handshakes on your wireless network adapter, it’s actually possible to do so using a single ESP8266 device. Using a D1 Mini, we’ll generate both sides of a Wi-Fi handshake, simulating a device joining a Wi-Fi network nearby. Hackers can use this to practice capturing handshakes and cracking them.

ESP8266 options:
IZOKEE D1 Mini (3 Pack):
