ey HF, today i'm going to show you how to Crack WEP and WPA/WPA2-PSK passwords!
I'm using BackTrack 5 r3 because the tools that
i'm going to use come already installed, but you can use any other
Linux Distribution!
WEP Cracking
What is Aircrack-NG?
Aircrack-ng is an 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK keys
cracking program that can recover keys once enough data packets have
been captured. It implements the standard FMS attack along with some
optimizations like KoreK attacks, as well as the all-new PTW attack,
thus making the attack much faster compared to other WEP cracking
tools.
In fact, Aircrack-ng is a set of tools for auditing wireless networks.
How do i use this tool?
Simple, just follow my tutorial and you'll be able to crack ALMOST any WEP encrypted password.
These are active attacks, which means that you have to be near the
target router in order for this to work. About 50% of signal should be
good.
Let's Begin.
Open up a terminal and type:
Quote:airmon-n
This will show you, your wireless card name. In my case it is called wlan1, but i also have wlan0.
Now, we need to set the wireless card in monitor mode, to do that type:
Quote:airmon-ng start wlan1
Ok, your wireless card is now on monitor mode. If you type airmon-ng again, it'll show you mon0
After that, type:
Quote:airodump-ng mon0
