Only some chipsets/drivers create mon0 for monitor mode. The others enable it on your original interface (wlan0 for you). It depends on if you are using the mac802.11 or ieee802.11 stack. In your...

Honestly, perhaps you should have read the entire post if you were going to comment. OP isn't even trying to use monitor mode on the iPod, OP is trying to use the iPod to run wordlist attacks on a...

The high channel numbers are not licensed stations. It's a known bug in how airodump parses radiotap headers with hidden networks. No fix for it last I checked.

OP, what exactly are you trying to do? You said the data rate goes up quickly? So injection is working and you're receiving ARPs? Why are you worried about aireplay claiming fakeauth failed if...

comaX, why would that sound like mac filtering? If that were the case he wouldn't have been able to inject packets in the first place without spoofing the correct mac, in which case he'd obviously...

Are you referring to wicd saying "connecting to network 2 ..." or whatever? Check to see what network it really connected to when it's finished. There seems to be a bug where it says it's connecting...

Doug, I was affected by the bug and msf3 is not still on the system. Directory /opt/framework3/msf3 does not exist. Prior to upgrading from the repo it was there and working.

Same problem here with kde 32 bit.

EDIT: Whoops, didn't see that Amael recently addressed this in another thread. Sorry for flogging a dead cat.

Same thing happened to me with 32 bit kde. Framework 3 is gone after trying to update from the repo (no msfconsole, etc existing anywhere). Uninstalled and tried again to no avail. Prior versions...

Nexxor, I was able to get everything working by replacing the version of nmap you mentioned with the one in /usr/local/sbin (I think that's where it was anyway. Not on bt right now).

There are two different drivers used for the rtl8187l chipset. rtl8187 and r8187. We know perfectly well about the driver you're referring to, but that isn't what this thread is about. The fact still...

Azkrath, I don't believe the r8187 driver is included in compat-wireless. rtl8187 is, but that's not what we were referring to.

I have the same problem with an alfa 36h clone. Locks up every time and flashes the caps lock light repeatedly when trying to connect to WEP with r8187. I can only restart by removing my laptop's...

Fast-Track's autopwn runs into this problem when it calls msf and isn't functional.

Anyone else notice when loading, some screens say "the quieter you become, the more you are able to hear" and some say "the quieter you are, the more you are able to hear"?

If I understand you correctly, you tried to replace backtrack's iw with a newer version. Instead, humor me and try running "./iw reg set BO" from the new iw download directory. It may not get you to...

Sorry, I misunderstood. I don't think I can help, other than still suggesting you try a newer version of iw. You could try it quickly before reinstalling. I was having a somewhat similar issue to...

I have a dealextreme alfa knockoff, and had the same issue you do. I may forget some details here, but basically I downloaded a newer version of iw and got it to work. I didn't want to replace the...

I tried what you are doing, but I ended up giving up. My memory may be wrong, but I believe that I found that upgrading xulrunner would break most of the tools in BT4.

Also, I've searched quite a...

apt-get only updates software to what is in the BT repo. The BT repo rarely has the current version (often the version is years outdated). A lot of the tools in BT have their own update functions,...

It's a known radiotap header parsing bug that sometimes appears with hidden networks. There's no fix for it at this time.

Also, there are several other threads on this forum about the issue.

As everyone has known for a while, rtl8187 chipset DOES work fine with monitor and injection (with both rtl8187 and r8187 drivers included in BT4). Most view it as the best chipset for use with...

Just to chime in and let you know how to use full power with r8187 (but won't work with rtl8187):


iwpriv wlan0 highpower 1
iwconfig wlan0 txpower 30

This should help when trying to fakeauth...

Is there a particular reason why this tutorial has people installing the gnome version of compiz and emerald instead of compiz-kde3 and emerald-kde3?

I'd love to see firesheep working on backtrack, but I've been unable to find any references to anyone getting it to work (just a couple of reports with ubuntu). I spent a day trying before giving up...
