How to crack WPA WPA2 protected WIFI networks
Easy & fast
Use Wifite ! Wifite is a python script which automates the WEP and WPA cracking process.
What you need :
- A Linux OS (Backtrack recommended)
- Aircrack-ng suite (v1.1 is Preferred)
- Python >= 2.4.5
- Obviously a wifi card with up-to-date linux driver
How to use ?
Download here. Just type ./wifite.py and you will see that it automatically puts a wireless interface into monitor mode and starts scanning for the nearby wireless networks.
Note: As written on Wifite's homepage : "Don't be a script kiddie. Understand the process being WEP and WPA cracking."
I want to understand what I do
Great. As we will not copy/paste one's work, please read this tutorial. Also you will find several good tutorials on how getting WPA handshakes with your friend Google.
I'm done, I've a WPA capture file
Congratulations.
You should have a *.cap or *.pcap file. The only thing to do to crack it (recover the password) is to upload your WPA capture here. We will crack it for you.
