How do i hack a wep

We just need to put channel and then bssid and then write the output. Using aircrack-ng is even more easy. We just type in aircrack-ng and after that we are going to write the file name. The file name is similar to the file name in airodump-ng. It will actually be the file in which we are capturing the packets. So it is going to get more clear when we actually do it. So now I am going to say airodump-ng wlan0mon to check the Wi-Fi available for us and here is our test network.

After that we specify the channel, and the channel is 1, and then we give it the output file name. So we can say here output-wep-crack or you can give it any name you want and after that we are going to say wlan0mon. So, it is very easy. Airodump-ng —bssid of the Wi-Fi or network we are trying to hack or crack the key, then channel and then the name of output file and then the interface monitor mode it is running on.

So it is very easy. We say aircrack-ng and after that we have to put the file name. So we say output -wep-crack and then the capture file. So, we have this file available. We can say aircrack-ng then after that we can copy it or we can just type in output and then capture file.

So it is saying that it failed to find two packets with the similar IV or similar random number so it is going to try next on 5, IVs. And you remember in the last videos we said that data is the number of useful packets we captured.

So now it can get more clear to you that these are the packets with different kind of IVs. For example, we have captured 2, packets right now and each of those packets have a different IV. So we actually need an IV or we need two packets with different IVs.

So it is going to keep capturing those data packets and then keep comparing them. Aircrack-ng will be comparing them and airodump-ng is actually capturing the packets. Here's the part where you might have to grab yourself a cup of coffee or take a walk. Basically you want to wait until enough data has been collected to run your crack.

Watch the number in the " Data" column—you want it to go above 10, Pictured below it's only at Depending on the power of your network mine is inexplicably low at in that screenshot, even though the yoyo AP was in the same room as my adapter , this process could take some time.

Wait until that Data goes over 10k, though—because the crack won't work if it doesn't. In fact, you may need more than 10k, though that seems to be a working threshold for many.

Once you've collected enough data, it's the moment of truth. Launch a third Konsole window and run the following to crack that data you've collected:. Here the filename should be whatever you entered above for file name.

You can browse to your Home directory to see it; it's the one with. If you didn't get enough data, aircrack will fail and tell you to try again with more. If it succeeds, it will look like this:. With this article I set out to prove that cracking WEP is a relatively "easy" process for someone determined and willing to get the hardware and software going. I still think that's true, but unlike the guy in the video below, I had several difficulties along the way.

In fact, you'll notice that the last screenshot up there doesn't look like the others—it's because it's not mine. Even though the AP which I was cracking was my own and in the same room as my Alfa, the power reading on the signal was always around , and so the data collection was very slow, and BackTrack would consistently crash before it was complete.

After about half a dozen attempts and trying BackTrack on both my Mac and PC, as a live CD and a virtual machine , I still haven't captured enough data for aircrack to decrypt the key. So while this process is easy in theory, your mileage may vary depending on your hardware, proximity to the AP point, and the way the planets are aligned. Oh yeah, and if you're on deadline—Murphy's Law almost guarantees it won't work if you're on deadline.

You can download it for free from its official site. You will also need Aircrack-ng which is a security suite to assess WiFi network security. It focuses on different area of WiFi security: monitoring, attacking, testing and cracking. Another important requirement is to check if your wireless card is compatible with Aircrack-ng or not. You can either scroll down to read each and every WiFi hacking method or can directly jump to the required section below using these links:. Now follow these below steps:.

And, allowed size of password is 64 characters. I hate to tell you this but yes, doing it on your own can take forever. The tool is fluxion. Instead of doing this, it performs a little bit of phishing where the already connected user is asked to enter password of WiFi network again for security reason and when the user enter the password, first the handshake is checked with the earlier captured handshake of the device, if handshake is correct that means the password entered by user is correct.

Once it is successful, Fluxion returns the key required to authenticate the network. Anyone in the WiFi range can connect his device to the network without any password in enjoy free internet. However, these networks are rarely available and also risky. It will show you what network interface are you using. In my system, I have only one network interface card wlan0 , which is my wireless interface card.

Create a network interface which runs in monitor mode. To do this enter command airmon-ng start wlan0.
