When i am running the command i receive the following error.

checking for netlink support...yes. will use netlink to read routing table netifaces.c:1:10: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory 1 | #include <Python.h> | ^~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. error: Setup script exited with error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

All attempts to use the tool fail after that as it is missing the netifaces distribution.

Traceback (most recent call last):

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'setuptools'

When this script runs on large networks, the scanning process is too long. That's fine when you do not know anything about the network, but if you know the IP range of hosts this is unnecessary. I suggest an improvement by adding an option to the scan that is used to specify a range of ip.

Hello @bitbrute ,
Any availability of an uninstaller in the near future?

If you require any help building one, let me know..

Thanks

How to solve this. Running project from docker container.

Please consider adding an option to block a host via their MAC, it would be quite useful, perhaps something like this:
block [INSERT MAC HERE]

Hello, first of all thank you a lot for this tool! I was searching for this for a long time, because my current load balancing system was bad and this is working great on my Kali Linux Laptop.
BUT i want to run it under a Windows System, so im using the Ubuntu Linux Subsytem in Windows 10.
I have every dependency installed and have successfully run the setup, but when i try to start evillimiter i am getting this error:

i couldn't solve it, so it would be really great if you could take a look on it.

I also tried to run evillimiter in a VM with the interface as bridged, but it seems to not function. The bandwith is not effected at all.

Thanks in advance

So apparently when I scan it only shows 3 hosts and those IP address are incorrect my interface is eth0 but my gateway ip and gateway Mac is incorrect is there anyway to change the gateway ip and gateway Mac I tried doing it by evil limiter -m (gateway Mac) and evil limiter -h and I put it my router gateway Mac and IP but when I input the Mac it auto starts evil limiter but not with the settings I put in the same incorrect ones

I blocked my laptop to try out the tool, after i did so i tried to free it but kali froze and had to hard reboot it. Now when i started evillimiter my laptop doesn't show up in the hosts list, thus i can't free it. HELP

Developers,

First let me say to everyone thank you for such a very nice and interesting piece of software! However, I am wondering, is there a way that it evil limiter could monitor the bandwidth and display it for all users before any limits are applied?

Thanks!

Stuart

First of all great tool!! Thanks for the great work on this amazing tool.

I have seen that when a user “limits” or blocks traffic the EvilLimiter application blocks by IP address.

• The blocked user then experiences limited speed.

The issue is that:

• the blocked user experiences limited speed, then drops off from the Network, then reconnects. The blocked user is assigned a new IP address and the MAC address remains.

This makes it so if I “limit” my entire network, and someone is “disconnecting then reconnecting” they are able to bypass the EvilLimiter.

If the EvilLimiter blocked/limited by Mac Address instead of IP address this workaround for blocked users would be more difficult

Hello, on LUBUNTU 18.04 LTS

python3 setup.py install

gives

Hello i have tried everything even reinstalling but nothing is being blocked and when i free i get error to flush network and i have to reboot to get menu back to try again

I put Sudo python3 setup.py install and get this error

Traceback (most recent call last):

Does limit and block really block and limit the users cause I see no effect, the wifi still works perfectly and the normal speed

I have setup a limit for my Xbox but this has stopped me from logging into Xbox live can anyone help

Thank you for the great tool, I didn't even think that it is possible to implement :)

Kali-Linux-2019.1-vbox-amd64

When I run the following command: "sudo python3 setup.py install"

I've got this error message:

First off i think this might be my fault but whenever i python3 setup.py this shows up.

When I do scan I only get 3 hosts every time, none of which start with 192.168 instead they start with 10.0.

I worked around this issue by manually adding my own ip and MAC address add [IP] (--mac [MAC]) then limit 3 100kbit

When I checked on speedtest.net the download and upload speeds were not affected even after doing limit 3 100kbit --download

Hi , tested this tool on Kali Nethunter. It works fine. It will be cool if you can add an option for launching the tool with mac add option on the gateway.

Thanks.

how to fix these errors

Question:

an app for evillimiter-ios and android?

I noticed you got a Windows binary and Linux.

Getting this error.

Could you guide us if this tool can be made work with Mac?

I could probably help, just let me know whats stopping this to work in Mac?

limit command just block devices " no internet " not limiting network speed , i tested that on 2 devices with different OS , from the router wifi and the access point wifi even with different speed .. same results although the device on the terminal is limited .

Linux Mint 19.1

Im unsure what happened. When i first installed evil limiter and tested it. It was limiting the connections to 3mbits with the limit command. Now if i run the limit command, it completely blocks the device from loading web pages as if i used the block command. I have tried with ethernet, it worked to limit connections. And my built in wireless device also was limiting the connections. So im confused as to why it just stopped functioning. Any ideas?

So I get in to the network that I have already spoofed IP and MAC address but the internet is not accessible. I tried researching and I see a lot of suggestions; one wrote to me that the ports are registered, another one; the LAN is configured to the MAC address.

I am seeking help on Bypassing those few suggestions if they are existing in the network access control.
Write to me [email protected] direct email.

every time i try using it when i get to the first part which is the installation, i get stuck because every time i use sudo python3 setup.py install it says this

Traceback (most recent call last):

can i get help please

I did the --flush but still same error

I'm baffled by what is going wrong. I use arch on my other laptop and it runs fine, but for some reason evillimiter gives me a qdisc error when running on a different arch installation.
This is running at root, flushing does not help.

So l was fascinated by Evillimiter for educational purposes of course. I used it on my Kali linux and it works so well. I wanted to try it on windows, sadly l got this error
