HACK WIRELESS NETWORKS

You will need the following BackTrack 3 Live CD and of course the laptop or desktop should be equiped with wireless card.

I downloaded the CD Image named “bt3-final.iso” and burned it to a CD.

To Burn the BackTrack 3 ISO File…
In Finder, right-click the downloaded “bt3-final.iso” file
Choose “Open With”
Click “Disk Utility”
In Disk Utility, click “bt3-final.iso”
Click the “Burn” icon
Insert a blank CD and wait for it to be recognized
Click “Burn”
You should now have a BackTrack 3 live CD.


Boot BackTrack
Insert BackTrack 3 Live CD
Restart Mac
When you hear the chime, hold down the “c” key until BackTrack starts to automatically boot. It’ll play a sound when it’s done loading.
Connect the USB WiFi Adapter

Use kismet
Click the blue KDE icon on the bottom-left of the screen
Choose “Backtrack” then “Radio Network Analysis” then “80211? then “All” then click “Kismet”
Select network device (“rausb0? for the Hawking HWUG1) and click “OK”.
After kismet lists available networks, press the “s” key then the “w” key to group the WEP networks together. You should see the WEP networks you noted earlier.
Navigate to the WEP network you want to crack first and press “enter”. You should now see the network’s details.

Use SpoonWEP
Click the KDE icon again then choose “Backtrack” then “Radio Network Analysis” then “80211? then “All” then click “SPoonWep”
You should now have both the kismet and SpoonWep windows showing
In SpoonWep, enter the “Victim Mac” by typing the “BSSID” address you see from the kismet window
Click “CHOOSE A CARD”
Click your card (“RAUSB0? for the Hawking HWUG1)
Check the “Ath” box
Match the “Channel” with the one from the kismet window
Set the “Inj Rate” to “1000?
Click “LAUNCH”
“Currently” should say “Nothing” then “ASSOCIATING” then “ATTACKING then “GATHERING ARP”. After “Captured” reaches “20000 IV S” it should say “Cracking WEP”
Make note of the resulting WEP Key for that particular network
In kismet, press the “q” key to get back to the network list. Repeat the steps for as many WEP protected networks you want.
Disconnect the USB WiFi Adapter
Restart the comptuer
