broadcom injection (dont even get me started...)

[dzapffe19]

I am trying to crack an easy WEP.
I have a broadcom chipset w/driver bcm43xx.
Bad... I know... Its on my dell laptop
I am just trying to:
aireplay-ng -1 0 -a MAC -h MY MAC eth0
Wil not work
Also,
aireplay -3 -b MAC -h MY MAC eth0
Will not work!

Does my card support injection?
What am I doing wrong, I have tried same procedure on 5-6 WEP networks.
Am I SOL? Can I update any driver?

I tried:
iwconfog eth0 rate 1M channel 6
Didnt help.

Any help is appreciated

Well...you know broadcom sux...but your still trying to use it. Just buy a supported card and all your (and our ) headaches will disappear!

-OR-

If you still must insist on using your Broad-Suck..I mean Broadcom...try updating your aircrack-ng suite to the Developmental Versuion by typing in a shell window.....

svn co http://trac.aircrack-ng.org/svn/branch/1.0-dev/ aircrack-ng
cd aircrack-ng
make 
make install

And see if that helps your broadcom out any.

I noticed that you are using the "eth0" as your wireless extention name. Isn't this for your onboard wired ethernet card?

What do running "iwconfig" and "ifconfig" give you for wireless extentions?

Yea, usually its eth1....not eth0

I cant get it to connect to the internet. I plugged my modem Ethernet cable directly into my computer, pulled up Firefox / konqueror and I cant get anything.
ping google, but received "unknown host"
Whats the deal, I plugged straight in from the DSL modem?
Is there any way I could patch or slipstream the information into the disc? (running on live cd)

This sounds strange, but my wireless is eth0, not eth1
iwconfig says eth1 has no wireless extensions, and eth0 says all about my card

Is it WEP protected? If so do the following...

ifconfig eth0 down
iwconfig eth0 essid networknamehere key WEPkeyhere
ifconfig eth0 up
dhcpcd eth0


Now you should have connection.

Didn't work
Network name is two words "Texas Tau" and is wpa-spk encrypted
when I did
ifconfig eth0 essid Texas Tau key ******
I got: essid: Host name lookup failure

So I tried on LAN:
dhcpcd eth1 (which is my onboard wired Ethernet)
then:
ping google com
ping:unknown host ....
firefox also yielded nothing

Can I just slipstream or patch my CD to have the Dev version found by normally doing:
svn co [the url you posted below which I cannot post because I dont have 15 posts...]
cd aircrack-ng
make
make install
Or is fixing the internet easier?

I dont care if I am connected wireless, I am sitting next to the modem and can easily temporarily cat5 in

Put your networks name in quotes in the command

iwconfig eth0 essid "network namehere" key WEPkeyhere

now try.

oh goodness...

iwconfig eth0 essid "Texas Tau" key blahblah
Error for wireless request "Set Encode (8B2A): invalid argument blahblah
It is the ASCII key, I dont know the HEX
Edit: googled ascii to hex converter and it let me connect
