🛰️ NIFFER LABS
Where dead tech comes back to life — one soldered joint at a time.
A salvaged satellite dish turned long-range WiFi sniffer, sweeping the neighborhood with a beam of pure curiosity. Official-looking FCC-style survey plate, Rick Roll QR code, and a healthy disregard for looking “proper.”
What is Niffer?
Niffer is my sideways little science project: a salvaged satellite dish turned long-range WiFi sniffer on a pole, scanning the neighborhood with a beam of pure curiosity. It’s got an official-looking FCC-style survey plate (don’t worry — it’s fully legal, and it’s got a Rick Roll QR code). Niffer Labs is the umbrella name for all the experiments: the dish, the wardriving rig, the retro-tech revivals, the BBS node — everything that shouldn’t work but does.
