WEP Cracking Issue

[jhyland87]

So, I tried to crack into MY OWN WEP network, using this tutorial.

forums.remote-exploit.org/showthread.php?t=9063

And here is what I got

Says "Wlan0 is on channel 6, but AP uses chanel 1"
How can I make AP use channel 6?

Firstly, you're trying to crack a WPA AP, not a WEP AP. That'll be your first hurdle.

Secondly, the airodump-ng has an argument to set the channel of the wireless card. For example:

airodump-ng -c 6 ath0

If that doesn't work, set it via:

iwconfig ath0 channel 6

....
airodump-ng -c 6 ath0

If that doesn't work, set it via:

iwconfig ath0 channel 6

Using the channel of the AP of course (in your case channel 1) and the correct card name (again, in your case wlan0)

NO !

please read carefully the post before answer !

"Wlan0 is on channel 6, but AP uses channel 1"

card (wlan0) is on channel 6 BUT AP(access-point) is on channel 1

so he needs to get the card in monitor mode using his preffered method
and then he will needs to set the CARD on channel 1

iwconfig wlan0 channel 1 rate 2M

now he will need to start airodump-ng on channel 1

airodump-ng -c 1 -w CAPTUREFILEPREFIX CARD

I assume that this is what he wanted to know, but his orginal question was:

How can I make AP use channel 6?

So we have to answer: open the Webinterface of your AP (e.g. type 192.168.0.1 in your browser)
Search for the wireless settings, and change the Channel to the one of your choice.

edit: Hm, there were some faster (better) answers

ahh, indeed :P Er, um, didn't want to spoonfeed him too much...

yeah so it would be:

airodump-ng -c 1 wlan0
