AP Association problem

[fujianese]

Hi all:
When I use BT 4 beta, try to associate to a AP with the following command:

aireplay-ng -1 0 -e Tom's Wireless -a XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan0;

After I hit enter, it gave me a ">" at a new line, nothing else happaned.
Could anyone help me please?

If there's a space in the name of the AP then you need to put it in inverted commas:

aireplay-ng -1 0 -e "Tom's Wireless" -a XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan0

I'm not sure whether the apostrophe is considered a "special character" at the Linux command line (I'd check it now only for I'm using an MS-Windows machine in an internet cafe), but if it is a special character, you'll need a backslash before it:

aireplay-ng -1 0 -e "Tom\'s Wireless" -a XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan0
