Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

Yep... I had the same probs... but not any more. :) Thank you!!!

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

So I get airodump to capture packets, but the # packets under "data" does not match the #IV's aircrack claims I collected. For example, I ran a short test and airodump claimed to capture 5300 IV's and Aircrack claimed I only captured 73. I am running the following script:
airodump-ng -c 6 -w zack --bssid **:**:**:**:**:** --ivs wlan0

** astericks are instead of actual MAC address.

If anyone could please shed some light on the discrepancy between programs.

Oh and one more thing, how do you write to a previously created file (in this case zack-01.ivs).

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

Could somebody define the steps if I wanted to use Kismet to gather the packets and use Aircrack for the procedure?

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

Installed wireless tools. wlan0 now shows up in ifconfig.

airodump-ng wlan0 -still displays a list of available command-line options.

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

if you do the following it sort of works:

airodump-ng -w mycapture --ivs wlan0

this gives you all the data from all channels in a file. then you can go back and run the statement again with the -c X thing that he mentioned earlier.

start Xterm, and become root.

Then enter:
airodump-ng wlan0

This will show you what networks are around, and the MAC addresses of the access points and computers which are connected, and what channels they are operating on. Make a note of the channel of the access point you want to test (ie your own one)

This doesn't work for me.

airodump-ng -c X -w mycapture --ivs wlan0

but change the X for the channel number of your access point. This will start capturing data which you will use to crack the WEP key, in a file called mycapture-01.ivs in your home directory

Now you have to wait for a while, till you have captured enough data to crack the WEP key. If the access point is busy then you might not have to wait too long.

This does work, I just put channel 11, my AP channel.
I left it on overnight, but woke up to it saying "SIGALRM". Which might mean the unit went to sleep (too!) and didn't wake.

Is there a way to tell it to not sleep?

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

awesome, this thread got me up and running.

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

Cracking Wep on a 770 is useless in real sircumstances as wifi drivers don't support injection but for studing purposes its cool. It would be great if we had good drivers - 770 would be the great key breaking device.

Re: Searching for Aircrack Howto!

i start airodump-ng and after some minutes i get "read failed: Network is down".does anybody knows something?
Also i only get 1 to 6 ivs
Help me please

How do I know just by looking at a mac address that this is the wireless for which I want the key ? :(
