(mac only)

Recently purchased(from amazon) a Hawking Technology G adaptor to test with Kismac. Using this youtube video tutorial:

What I learned from this exercise is that the only way to crack WPA and WPA2 is via bruteforce/wordlist. I have gather some over the internet and I believe that you can produce some with Cain and Able, more details coming in the next post.

Here are some basic word list:

Cracking WEP is much more easier specially with the HWUG1 card which can perform injection. You acn successfully retrive the key with these easy steps:

1. Select the RT73 device driver in preference, remove the airport drivers.
2. Scan/sniff the network
3. Then under preference select the channel which the SSID in interest sits on,
4. Click on reinject packets and wait until ~130,000 packets have been gathered.
5. After 130,000 or so have been gathered click on network →crack →Weak Scheduling Attack →Both
6. The Key should be cracked in a matter of minutes (works for me if stuck email me)

Hope this quick guide helps, working on one for the WPA encryption.

dumb disclamer: This is not a toy dont break/crack networks that are not yours, im not responsible for anything done with this tutorial/tools
