<p>Thinking twice before connecting to a public Wi-Fi at a coffee
shop, hotel or an airport lounge is a must nowadays. Every Wi-Fi
user should be cautious whether this free Wi-Fi hotspot that is
allowed to be connected to is authentic or nothing but a rogue
access point. Rogue access points (aka evil twin access point)
allows the attacker to eavesdrop network traffic and to intercept
the victims exchanged data or to even to alter the data while en
route. The objective of this study that is going to be conducted
somewhere in Jordan is to assess the security level in this area
and to put a remedy to the weaknesses wherever found. This
paper gives a statistical survey to illustrate the threatening level
of such fake access point then to analyze the weaknesses and
strengths of security measures in order to raise people awareness
toward this kind of attacks. </p>
