Selfishnet v0.1 beta is a lightweight network management tool designed to give you control over internet bandwidth on a shared local network. It functions by using , essentially tricking other devices into routing their traffic through your computer so you can manage their connection. Key Features of Selfishnet v0.1 Beta
Displays active IP addresses, MAC addresses, and current bandwidth usage. Capacious Control: selfishnet v0.1 beta
In a typical LAN, devices communicate using MAC addresses (hardware addresses), not IP addresses. When a computer wants to send data to the router (gateway), it sends an ARP request asking, "Who has the IP address 192.168.1.1?" The router replies with its MAC address, and the computer stores this pairing in its ARP cache. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) spoofing Selfishnet v0
The "v0.1 Beta" tag was crucial. It was an admission of imperfection—a bare-minimum prototype that worked just well enough to be dangerous, but not well enough to be called stable. Capacious Control: In a typical LAN, devices communicate
