imi Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 what's the easiest way to crack a WEP key using only the one laptop with one wireless card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Have you locked yourself out? What wireless router is it? Netgear? If so could you connect to the router using a CAT5 cable and then disable the WEP key from there? (I did exactly this, just this morning!)

Wez Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Once you get back into the router change the security from wep to WPA-PSK, much more secure and you dont have to use stupid length wep keys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Tony....nope. this is purely for educational purposes Using windows boxes to hack wireless can be tricky as most wireless card drivers do not allow promiscious mode, the easiet way to do it would be download BackTrack linux livecd.
