Changelog:

added multiple AP selection
added Settings
added beacon list attack
added SSID list
optimized JSON/AJAX (bugfix for #5 )
scan for hidden SSIDs (thx @N0vaPixel)

I want to merge this as soon as possible but there are probably new bugs in it so please test and report here if everything works :) thanks.

Latest Testing Branch - 27/02/17 17:00 gmt
NodeMCU ESP8266 and WeMos D1 Mini
Android/Chrome

All working great deauthing my Chrombook, Intel Laptop(Ubuntu), Android TV box and Raspberry Pi very successfully at different distances from my AP :-)

New settings working as expected.

Beacon (clone) working as expected.
~~Will there be another option to use Beacon (spam) that will use the SSID list?~~

Fantastic, thank you for all the work you have done on this project 💯 👍

Edit: Just noticed latest change to include SSID list (re-flashing and testing)

All working great, new features all working as expected, Tested on NodeMCU and WeMos D1 Mini boards 👍

First scan => working well.
Select an AP => working well
Scan AP => finds nothing (should find three of my devices), disconnects me, and shows me an empty AP list on reconnect.

Everything is now working! Good job @spacehuhn. However I have a suggestion:
The custom SSID list should have an option of spamming.
If I put one SSID in the list it would spam the beacon as if I selected an AP with that name.

@spacehuhn commented on GitHub (Feb 27, 2017):

@H1ghTech have you used the right SDK version? If the deauth attack isnt working it's probably beacause the necessary function can't be used. That's not an issue related to the testing branch, but when it crashes it could be something else - if that happens please paste the log here (but via pastebin or somehing else please).

@whyisthisusernamealreadytaken I will think about that one!

About the APScan bug:
I tested it and it looks like the json string can still get to long and the ESP crashes. The max max size seems to be around 3000 chars. I set maxAPScanResults to 30 (what equals a max json size of ~2870 chars) and it works.

EDIT: It can send more than 4000 chars actually... then that's the max size of the settings json string with all client names. Maybe the AP scan json is just to heavy to generate? Too many variables at once and not enough RAM?

The symbian plattform is outdated since 2012. It's probably not working because it doens't supports current JavaScript features or JS at all. Don't expect that this will ever work with it, sorry.

About your other issues -> I need the logs!
If the log seems ok use the developer options in your browser to see if the JS produces an error.

Thanks for your reports so far :)

Just added a few more debug infos including to print the generated json and the client scan time. If no one has something against it I would like to procede to merge this into the master branch. Since the only bugs you reported so far were not reproucable for me and most likely because of browser (or human ;) ) incompatibilities.

All good and working great, deauthing everything on my network very effectively.
All new features working and seeing hidden networks, thank you @N0vaPixel

The continuous scan button seems to stop after 1 minute, not sure if this is designed to happen but not an issue for me.

Great work @spacehuhn seems good to merge for me 👍
Will continue testing with other boards.

yeah the continuous scan will eventually stop at some point when a timeout occurs. That's just something which can't be changed the way it's implemented but still better then nothing.

Do I need to change something to my Wifi library in order to get this working ? I thought Async Wifi scan only happened in an earlier version of the SDK and was not available yet in the 2.0.0
