22 Sep 08 Wireless Hacking, Problems with WEP, Wireless Security and WPA

Unfortunately today there are still a huge range of wireless OEM equipment being shipped with WEP as standard. WEP has been known as vulnerable for a long time. This HOWTO assumes Linux familiarity, compatible hardware, the ability to read and troubleshoot, and a brain.

Hacking your wireless network is not difficult, and here’s a procedure you can use to test:

You’ll need:
1. A PC and wireless network.
2. A linux PC/laptop with a wireless networking device

Method:
1. Boot your (debian) pc
2. wget http://download.aircrack-ng.org/aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1.tar.gz
3. tar -xzf aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1.tar.gz
4. cd aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1
5. ./configure
6. make
7. make install
