For any client to join a WLAN, it should know the SSID of the WLAN therefore, the access points typically broadcast their SSID to let the clients know that an AP is in range.
Every BSS has an Identification known as a BSSID, also known as the MAC address, which is a unique identifier that is associated with every NIC. The set of all stations that communicate with each other is referred to as the Basic Service Set (BSS). They receive and transmit information for the clients to communicate with. Stations can be access points (APs), or clients.Īccess points are base stations for the wireless network. All devices that can connect to a wireless network are known as stations. Many sources said it was easy, few said it was hard.Ī wireless local area network (WLAN) is the linking of 2 or more computers with Network Interface Cards (NICs) through a technology based on radio waves. I soon came to the realization that the best way for me to understand the security of my wireless network would be to test it myself. I searched the Internet for many days, reading articles, gathering information, and participating on message boards and forums. After a day of enjoying this wireless freedom, I began thinking about security. To avoid the hassle of setting up a wired network in my own home, I chose to go wireless. Wireless networks are everywhere they are widely available, cheap, and easy to setup. Just wait and watch….Backtrack will do rest of the work.
Keep this console as it is and start 4th console.
Now you will see that ARP and ACK packets in 2nd console are increasing fast Message than keep on trying until you get success Leave this console as it is and start new kĪireplay-ng -2 –p 0841 –c FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF Well if you don’t see ARP ACK and sent packets are not increasingĪccessing that network.But don’t worry you go an optional step, If you don’t get Association Successful mesage then keep on trying untilĪireplay-ng -3 -b (bssid) -h 00:11:22:33:44:66 wifi0 Leave this console as it is and start new konsoleĪireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bssid) -h 00:11:22:33:44:66 wifi0 (bssid) with the BSSID which u had already note (channel) with the CH which u had already n If not than don’t worry we will still crack it. Means you some one is accessing that network and our task will be Note that if the same BSSID is available in the second part with Notedown BSSID, CH and ESSID somewhere in notepad or paper This will start populating Wifi networks.
