Does BT4 includes latest patches?

[hyrasx]

I am using backtrack 4 (installed on hdd) on a hp530 laptop. I don't use the onboard wireless card iwl3945.

I have two USB adapters, one with rtl8187 and another with zd1211rw. I tested injection with both adapters with aireplay -9 and it shows Injection is working! 30/30 100%.

But when I try to capture IVs it goes really slow (1 every few seconds).

(I execute aireplay-ng -3... while airodump is running).

I don't have r8187 installed.

Do I have to apply some patch? I was reading this rtl8187 [Aircrack-ng] but those patches seems to be for and older kernel. Plus im not sure if i know how to use them (i only used patched with compat-wireless, make make load make install).

What commands did you use? Help me help you...

[ceefus]

Could you give the input/output of the commands you're using?

What method are you using?

apparently you didn't read enough..

Driver r8187/ieee-80211 on BackTrack 4 final (pwnsouce)

wlan0 is the onboard iwl3945
wlan1 is the usb adapter that uses rtl8187

These are the commands I tried

# airmon-ng stop wlan1
# airmon-ng start wlan1 X (X = channel)
# airodump-ng -c X --bssid 00:11:22:33:44:55 -w capture_file wlan1 (i take the AP --bssid from cmd airodump-ng wlan1)
# aireplay-ng -9 -e NAME -a 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan1 (this show Injection working 100%)
# aireplay-ng -1 0 -e NAME -a 00:11:22:33:44:55 -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX wlan1 (I take -h from ifconfig, this command show Association successful)
# aireplay-ng -3 -b 00:11:22:33:44:55 -h XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (this shows: Read xxxxxxx packets (got xx ARP requests), sent 0 packets...)

I also tried with mon0 with the same results, and other aireplay attacks like chop chop, but still get no injection.

Have you tried reading the link i provided? Do you need me to highlight it red for you? (done!)
You are skipping from the essential (load the correct drivers), straight to start monitoring.. That simply won't work..

Furthermore, if you really want to learn, start googling for such basic information, i had to find out this for myself, and this is pretty basic information, available and easily discoverable.. If you're not able to find out this alone, and want to be spoon fed, you're not suitable for working with BT..

Cheers!

I did read that link but I choose to ignore your comment (not trying to disrespect you) and read those that could lead me to solve my problem, beyond that my question cawas if bt4 includes the latest patches, I still couldn't get injection working. Also I forgot to add in my previous post that I also tried drivers r8187 with the same results, but since in these forums posts needs moderation I wasn't able to edit it, and I didn't want to make a duple post just to add that.

Injection will not work with rtl8187 driver, you need to load the r8187 to have injection working..
From what i know BT4 has the latest patches on RTL8187 driver and aircrack-ng suite..
Try these simple troubleshoot steps and post your results.
- unload rtl8187 driver and load r8187
- be sure you don't have widc running
- start Gerix wifi cracker
- choose card and turn on monitor mode
- scan networks
- start sniffing and test injection

If injection doesn't work, you have a problem with your wifi card, not the patches. I have 3 RTL8187 (2 internal, 1 USB) and these steps work successfully on all of them.

Cheers!

I have had a similar issue: the rtl8187 passes the "aireplay-ng -9" test, but doesn't actually generate IVs.

The problem is that there isn't a current r8187 driver on BT4R1 for the stock 2.6.34 kernel... I found one under "/lib/modules/2.6.35.4/" - but there is no kernel 2.6.35.4 on the system, so I'm not sure why that directory is even there. I assume it was tested then removed from the final release of R1.

There are several drivers that say they inject but don't, including iwl and zd1211rw besides the rtl8187. I patched and recompiled compat-wireless for zd1211rw, but haven't yet installed it because I haven't figured out if it will break the drivers that _do_ inject (RT73 and Atheros, so far).

Any help would be appreciated... I've searched and read the forums here and at aircrack-ng all day...

My problem was apparently the USB adapter, I replaced it with a new one and now it works perfectly.

Thanks everyone for the help.
