Hi,
Yes, I am a newbie, and apologize for asking for such basic assistance. I am running BT4 installed, on a HP Pavilion dv5000 and am using a D-Link AirPlus DWL-G650 (which I'm told should work).
I have taken the following steps:
- I have followed the instructions supplied by the aircrack-ng website to verify that I am able to do injection.
- I have verified that I am able to put my D-Link card into monitor mode.
- I run sudo perl wepbuster
- I choose my wlan1 card
- Both WEP AP's that I have set up fail to be cracked, they are not using mac filtering.
I get the following from wepbuster:
Code:
Pwning "TestAP" (XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX) Tue Jul 21 20:09:11 2009
Checking for mac filtering...
Can't associate. aireplay-ng died!
Attack was unsuccessful. Possible reasons:
Too many to mention. =)
Try running this command manually:
"aireplay -1 1 -a XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan1 -e "TestAP" -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX 2>&1"
So, I run the command (adding in the missing -ng of course) and get this:
Code:

20:11:16 Sending Authentication Request (Open System)
Attack was unsuccessful. Possible reasons:
* Perhaps MAC address filtering is enabled.
* Check that the BSSID (-a option) is correct.
* Try to change the number of packets (-o option).
* The driver/card doesn't support injection.
* This attack sometimes fails against some APs.
* The card is not on the same channel as the AP.
* You're too far from the AP. Get closer, or lower
the transmit rate.
I realize that this is very generic but am hoping for some assistance in narrowing down the problem. I suspect driver related issues, as everything else is 'out of the box' so to speak.
If it helps, when starting kismet I get the error "could not connect to Kismet server." I'm not really interested in getting kismet set up at the moment (one thing at a time) so, please help a newbie to get started
