how to hack wep key

[ferrari_666]

hi. can anybody tell me how to hack wep key? thanks

[caveman_nige]

Do you want the wep key that your machine uses to connect to a network (and have forgotten) or do you wish to get the wep key for another network you wish to access...? different tools for either process, but quite easy to do

your best downloading a product called Russix to do this.,.. Its a Live CD so you boot up on it and it runs a Linux (slax based) operating system out of your ram and therefeor will not touch your windoze installation...


Russix Download - Softpedia (http://linux.softpedia.com/progDownload/Russix-Download-35766.html)I will update this post with the locations of the instructions on how to use Russix shortly..

Update. Intructions are here...

http://rapidshare.com/files/206883940/russix.rar.htmlThe original authors site and various supporting sites/forums seem to have been closed so finding support on this product is harder to find,,, But the instructions are very concise...

[ferrari_666]

thanks man, i will contact you again if i have any fogginess

[ferrari_666]

i have one question.Does Russix work on Vista?

[caveman_nige]

it is an operating system on a CD mate, known as a 'Live CD', you boot up off it and it runs a version of linux using the ram of the machine.... Windows has nothing to do with.. You can run this on just about any laptop, there does not need to be an operating system installed...

[krazylegz]

anyone having any trouble booting up with russix??

i extracted and burned the files to cd using ashampoo....restarted pc and changed option in bios to boot from dvd rw but it wont boot from it just loads up windows??

[caveman_nige]

I will upload my iso to rs tomorrow if you are having probs with the image you have dowloaded. The version i use is modified for my ati graphics chipset, should still be worth trying though. Or if you will be here for an hour I will image my disc now and upload it the one i have with me...

[krazylegz]

i'll try the link in this thread first nige m8 http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f20/wifi-programes-171/index3.html

i'll download it the night and try the morra m8....i'll let u know if this one works first to save you uploading it m8

[mrtell]

if i understood you right....

dont extract the files......just burn the iso
I just burn the iso using nero
recorder......burn image

[krazylegz]

when i downloaded it, it wasnt a iso file m8 was a winrar archive file, unless its an iso being identified wrong??

i'll try and burn it without extracting it

[mrtell]

usually comes down as an iso, would be supprised if it was'nt.
maybe.....control panel, folder options, view, hide extentions for known file types "uncheck" then save (xp and vista.)

[caveman_nige]

ok here is another, but this is an uncompressed iso..


http://www.megaupload.com/?d=0YU2BV20

could not get it onto rs for some reason, so shoved it there instead...

[krazylegz]

yeah it was an iso just showing up as a winrar archiver for some reason?

i got it to start to boot up...got the clover leaf etc then it says something about checking usb devices..then errors says this should happen please reboot using ctrl+alt+delete

[mrtell]

russix should just run once booted, sometimes incompatible with some hardware and it does require the right wireless adapter, i use NETGEAR 108 WG511T WIRELESS PC CARD, very good with russix. if you are having trouble with russix try BACKTRACK, very good, more powerfull but harder to get your head around. The reason for using the right pc card is that not all cards will packet the target ip, "difference being time to crack wep key, with a good card that will packet say 4 mins opposed to hours and hours.
backtrack Remote-Exploit.org - Supplying offensive security products to the world (http://remote-exploit.org/backtrack_download.html)

backtrack contains a program called aircrack-ng, Aircrack-ng is an 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK keys cracking program that can recover keys
documentation-------- http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=simple_wep_crack http://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=2724
took a little while but i did figure after a bit of reading and searching.

[krazylegz]

thanks for the info mrtell.

i've downloaded backtrack and will try that. :)

[krazylegz]

i've downloaded beta4 and it boots ok but asks for login in and password before it will load up properly

you will need to buy an adapter with a removeable antenna if you don't already have one, and then you can buy much larger antennas, some that will reach miles.
You can also make youself a cantenna.

People still use wired equivilent protection :o

been on WPA2 AES for ages, ive not used wep since b spec transmissions.
even WPA TKIP is compromised nowadays and if someone compromises your network and downloads sketchy stuff like paedo shit then its you that gets prisonsexed not the culprit.

Boosting a wifi signal is fairly easy, you can modify a sky dish by removving the lnb and using a piece of 10mm twin and earth copper as an antenna, just trim it to the required frequency and youve essentialy got a very high gain (you can get atleast +32db if your joints are perfect) directional antenna.

thanx for the tutorial

Do you have a version that doesn't need burning to CD, as i am using a netbook and have no dvd/cd drive. Thanks.

my cd seems to work fime on vista, 7 & xp, the only problem im having is that it is not detecting any of my wireless cards and i have tried 3 , do you need a certain kind of network card or something ?

Also anyone got a new link to the instructions

take a look at backtrack

install vmware workstation and run it side by side with windows

lots of stuff on backtrack and education in itself

part of the process too cracking a wep key is by bruteforce ie.. too attack with a dictonary of words

and also packet injection and you wanna get a high power wireless card

the best by far is ALFA 500Mw card has full backtrack 4 compliance

and get a good wifi aerial a Yagi 18Dbi is a good pointer

check the new 1000Mw card



you can crack wep & wpa keys with this baby

Just wondering can you hack WPA and WPA2? Also, when these are "hacked" can you not then see the key, when you run windows again?

EDIT: Must read properly first

[Tommy123Tommy]

I think i found my problem

My wireless card is an Intel, i read somewhere you need to configure the DLL files and it might work. Anyway i have a notebook i never use that runs Linux, just checked and it has a Atheros AR5BXB63 wireless car but no cd slot so im going to give aircrack ago with that.

can i not just run it on the note book as it runs Linux ?

[waqasahmed]

Just wondering whats the power got to do with anything, unless of course it means you can find more wireless signals than normal?

Would increase your chances on the AP as it should pick up a stronger signal than a standard USB adaptor lets say.

[Tommy123Tommy]

Got mine working now using BT4 on usb stick , also got the intel card working, anyone know where there are any good dictionary's for wpa

Cheers.

@ Tommy123Tommy (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/members/79291-tommy123tommy/) :

try this :

YouTube - backtrack 4 wep (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=backtrack+4+wep&search_type=&aq=9&oq=backtrack)

It worked for me.

Have fun !

[waqasahmed]

tommytommy did you use a standard wireless usb or on that AP thingy with stronger signals?

[Tommy123Tommy]

@ PVL

i have watched them many times , i will take another look though.

i have used the standard cards that are in my laptops, one is a asus eeepc with atheros AR5BXB63 card and a t42 with an Intel pro 200BG, i use the atheros with bt4 and the Intel with Cain & able .

[waqasahmed]

Off to order myself a wifi card now :D

I was looking for one myself but never bothered to pursue it fully. If you come across one before me then do let me know.


Vice versa

[waqasahmed]

I think I might buy myself an N PCI card from eBay.com the Hong Kong seller says it supports WPA, but doesnt mention WPA2. I know Im wanting to hack in to other people's systems, but also wanting to keep mine as secure as possible :D

[Tommy123Tommy]

the make of card you use is pretty important, not all work with bt and some do not support monitor mode .

Before you rush into things i suggest you use google and read all the information you can , i know it is hard because there is a lot of conflicting information but it will put you in good stead when trying to crack your OWN keys to secure your own network ;-)

[waqasahmed]

What make(cheap) would you recommend? I was just going to get a cheap card for $16 at first :D

[duhok]

Is't possible to get open Russix or Backtrack3 on a virtual machin? real time hacking :D

wow here's the full CD of Backtrack 3 final enjoy
