    To crack WPA, one must first put their wireless card into monitor mode using the airmon-ng tool in Backtrack Linux. Then, use wash to scan for networks and copy the BSSID, which is then passed to the Reaver tool along with the monitor interface name, such as "mon0", to begin cracking the WPA handshake. Reaver may take anywhere from 10 minutes to days to fully crack the password, so it is best to start it and let it run in the background until completion.

    A simple guide to crack WPA

    You must be running the latest Backtrack 5 R2 download from http://www.backtrack-


    linux.org/downloads/ choose GNOME 32 bit, this Backtrack version already have many new command
    like wash and reaver install and it is ready to be use, but for my customer who already have the
    backtrack dvd than you save a lot of time downloading it. But make sure u unzip the backtrack to a
    folder u remember and open with vmware

    You must have a wireless card capable of raw injection, My recommended wireless for more stable
    connection and injection is Alfa AWUS036H or Alfa AWUS036NHR, the good about AWUS036NHR( will
    detect in backtrack as rtl8192, is it can detect N signal perfectly as well as G Signal while AWUS036H is
    perfect for G signal

    Once Back Track is downloaded, you have 2 choice

    1) Boot from DVD rom to run it


    2) Run it from windows using vmware if you know it and where to download it, there is plenty of
    place to download vmware with google search whice I don’t need to guide you, The best for
    using VMware is you can running backtrack with your windows together

    When Running VMware,, remember, Make sure your wireless card is plug in to your usb port.
    Vmware will detect the card, But many have forget of donno that they must active the wifi card in
    vmware, to do this, look at the right bottom of your vmware,there is a wificard icon, click on it and
    you will have an option to connect or disconnected from host, connect it.

    Backtrack tips:

    When backtrack is started in a console screen, it may ask for login and password ( depend on
    backtrack version) the login is root and password is toor

    After this, wait for a moment until backtrack loading is stop lie this

    rootbt:

    Type startx…..

    rootbt: startx

    then just click enter and the basic following command is ( press enter on each)

    1) airmon-ng
    2) airmon-ng start wlan0
    this is call monitor mode for your wifi card
    You must put your wireless card into monitor mode. This is most easily done using airmon-ng from
    the aircrack-ng tool suite.

    Basic Usage

    First, make sure your wireless card is in monitor mode:

    root@bt:~# airmon-ng start wlan0

    root@bt:~#wash -i mon0 (to scan for valid Wifis.) copy the bssid and paste in reaver

    The best is close the wash console and open up a new console in backtrack interface than….

    To run Reaver, you must specify the BSSID of the target AP and the name of the monitor mode
    interface (usually 'mon0', not 'wlan0', although this will vary based on your wireless card/drivers):

    root@bt:~# reaver -i mon0 -b bssid -vv

    You will probably also want to use -vv to get verbose info about Reaver's progress:

    root@bt:~# reaver -i mon0 -b 00:01:02:03:04:05 –vv

    To make u more understand, I will link you to a youtube website for more information

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxXfCX4HIUE

    ok to not wasting time and bored skip this video up to 2:9 minutes than you learn from there which I
    already teach you, is ok to keep watch and watch because the more you watch, the more you
    understand, the reason I ask you to skip the beginning is because you don’t need to learn how to
    install reaver because reaver is already build it in the backtrack 5 R2 you download.

    Once reaver is running, just wait and let reaver do the job till 100% sometimes if you are lucky you
    will get the wpa password in 10 minutes, but if you are unlucky it may take days for reaver to reach
    100% running, successful rate is 99%, just leave reaver running and it is just the matter of time when
    the password will be show up.
