How to crack WEP keys?


The myth that only computer savy persons can do extraordinary things, is a thing of the past.With the introduction of the internet, the web has provided an endless stream of information and knowledge that one can use to his or her advantage to harness various skills.For example have you used a Digicel or Telikom modem to check your email or browse the internet?  Then  when you are about to retrieve or download a very important file,your connection is cut of because the credits is finished.You then see that the wireless icon on the task bar is yellow and their a few networks listed. You then try to connect to this but it has a network security key and you do not know this key.

Now to the fun part, as I stated earlier, you do not have to be knowledgeable in computers to do this, their are countless number of freeware software's on the internet that you can download to crack network security keys.This tutorial will be on cracking WEP passwords as it is the most vulnerable and can be easily cracked.

Four Basic Steps

1. Download  COMVIEW FOR WIFI on the internet.
2.Check to see if you have a compatible wireless adapter
3.Download Air Crack -ng on the internet
4.Extract the files by creating a folder and putting the setup files in,as both are compressed files when you download.

Once the files for the two applications are unzipped, you then run the Commview application first in monitor mode.Commview will start collecting packets from the network traffic.You should collect more than 100 000 so that it would be easier to crack the key.Aircrack -ng is then used to analyse and start working out the network security key using the wordlist technique.The end result is you having the keys that will let you have access to free wifi internet.

That is all folks and I hope you have learned something today. A comprehensive tutorial on this will be published this week.
