Newbie Guide:- How to crack a WEP key, step by step. By another newbie.

[risbo]

when i try to aircrack-ng -f 4 -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 -n 64 capture.cap it says that capture.cap cant be found
Help?

[AWBbox]

check what the file is being saved as in the other console screens. I got confused by this too and it turned out that the .cap file was being saved as something completely different lol

[darkip]

Are you running that command from the folder with capture.cap in it?

If not, that's your problem.

00:06:AB:00:1D:AC 174 7 0 6 11 WEP? Tomren

I can't see any IV's!

[trueblu8]

Lol, the iv's are the "# data".

[deathxxl]

Now I have the data\IV but the aireplay not working

Command = "aireplay-ng --arpreplay -b 00:11:22:33:44:55 -h 66:77:88:99:00:AA ath0"

and this...

Command = "aireplay-ng -e DLINK -a 00:11:22:33:44:55 -c 66:77:88:99:00:AA --deauth 10 ath0"

does nothing.

[AWBbox]

it doesn't look like your wifi adapter is called ath0. try wlan0

Where I can find the "capture.cap"?

AWBbox, thanks.

[snakeyes37]

the capture.cap files are under the "Home Folder"

[deathxxl]

thank you snakeyes37. I found it.
