WiFi Hack, hack all wireless encryption WEP, WPA or WPA2
A new program to hack into wi-fi signals. How many of us has a notebook
or desktop PC with wireless card and this captures several Wi-Fi signals, but want to connect to one, are protected by a password, this is the solution.

How To Download:
WiFi Hack, this little program decrypts passwords and cracks these
wireless signals either WEP, WPA or WPA2 encryption, and so we can hang
and have free internet. It also serves to prove the security level
of your Wi-Fi and see how it is vulnerable to such attack.
How to Crack a Wi-Fi Network’s WEP Password
You
already know that if you want to lock down your Wi-Fi network, you
should opt for WPA encryption because WEP is easy to crack. But did you
know how easy? Take a look.
If
the network you want to test is running the more popular WPA
encryption, see our guide to cracking a Wi-Fi network's WPA password
with Reaver instead.
Today
we're going to run down, step-by-step, how to crack a Wi-Fi network
with WEP security turned on. But first, a word: Knowledge is power, but
power doesn't mean you should be a jerk, or do anything illegal.
Knowing how to pick a lock doesn't make you a thief. Consider this post
educational, or a proof-of-concept intellectual exercise.
Dozens
of tutorials on how to crack WEP are already all over the internet
using this method. Seriously—Google it. This ain't what you'd call
"news." But what is surprising is that someone like me, with minimal
networking experience, can get this done with free software and a cheap
Wi-Fi adapter. Here's how it goes.
What You'll Need
Unless
you're a computer security and networking ninja, chances are you don't
have all the tools on hand to get this job done. Here's what you'll
need:
- A compatible wireless adapter—This is the biggest requirement. You'll need a wireless adapter that's capable of packet injection, and chances are the one in your computer is not. After consulting with my friendly neighborhood security expert, I purchased an Alfa AWUS050NH USB adapter, pictured here, and it set me back about $50 on Amazon. Update: Don't do what I did. Get the Alfa AWUS036H, not the US050NH, instead. The guy in this videobelow is using a $12 model he bought on Ebay (and is even selling his router of choice). There are plenty of resources on getting aircrack-compatible adapters out there.
- A BackTrack 3 Live CD. We already took you on a full screenshot tour of how to install and use BackTrack 3, the Linux Live CD that lets you do all sorts of security testing and tasks. Download yourself a copy of the CD and burn it, or load it up in VMware to get started. (I tried the BackTrack 4 pre-release, and it didn't work as well as BT3. Do yourself a favor and stick with BackTrack 3 for now.)
- A nearby WEP-enabled Wi-Fi network. The signal should be strong and ideally people are using it, connecting and disconnecting their devices from it. The more use it gets while you collect the data you need to run your crack, the better your chances of success.
- Patience with the command line. This is an ten-step process that requires typing in long, arcane commands and waiting around for your Wi-Fi card to collect data in order to crack the password. Like the doctor said to the short person, be a little patient.
