Are you talking about cracking the key? I suppose that's the only way besides talking to the network admin. Or sneak into the building and grab it from another computer. :)

BackTrack 3 is the OS of choise if you want to crack it.

Download a .iso from remote exploit and burn it to a CD or

make a bootable penstick / memory card.

Wifi-cracking is not legal :)

Could you elaborate? You want to access the "closed" Wireless network without permission or a key?

That means you have to crack the key to access it.. Or some divine intervention or something..

So , is impossible to discover the key and use that wireless without knowledge from the owner??

Because i lose my web and i have many wireless and sometimes is very good to use some wireless to see my mailbox for example :(, im not abuse :(

I think what everyone's trying to say is it's possible but you should do some reading yourself. I mean, if you can access the web make these posts surely you can do some research on Breaking WiFi security. Start at http://google.com

Yes. just configure your computer name to something that does not relate to you. Such as your name or computer model.

Don't know if you can "HIDE" yourself inside the network. I always check the DHCP list for intruders on my WPA-PSK network... So I guess not?

You could prevent your computer from sending DHCP requests and manually set the address. The DHCP server in the router won't know the computer is there. However, since you are using wireless you have to associate with the AP, the AP will have, at least, a record of the MAC address.

Bah, Mac Adress's are just random letters and numbers for average users.

And with BackTrack you can manipulate is aswell...

I think the bottom line is, start reading, Do some reasearch. We don't encourage or discourage you from trying to crack wep(For your own knowledge, personal equipment, pentesting, etc) but no one here is just going to hand you something and say, here, press this button and all will be good. We will help to some extent, but you don't seem to even have a clue how any of this works, so I suggest, as others have, start with google. Read, read, and then read some more. Trial and error, read some more, ask more questions and eventually you will accomplish what you want. Just understand that cracking wireless that is NOT yours is illegal, and what you do with that knowledge is up to you. You are responsible for any trouble you get into.

With that said, start doing some google searches for your needs and come back when you have a bit more understanging about all of this and Im sure people will be more helpful at that point when you can actually understand what it is you are seeking to do.

Knowledge is not a crime. What you do with it may be.

:blink: Cardiff here :)

Only way to hack a wireless network without the owner knowing is to become a Grand Master Ninja! Only then can you truly pwn!

WANT.

Also, just noticed you're from the West Midlands. I'm in Wolverhampton..

ah sweet your only up the road then.

i used to drink in wolvo town regular.

So, this is my solution to the problem:

- download backtrack3 and burn it on a cd.

- buy a sitecom wl-172. It's a wifi usb stick with the ralink chipset RT73. I have one of these beauties and it works perfectly in monitor mode and with kismet. You can buy it for 25 euro in Europe (I think 20$ in the USA)

- throw away the cd that comes with the usb stick. It's full of useless windows-shit :)

- boot your pc with backtrack3

- read this tutorial and follow the istructions: http://ryanunderdown.com/2007/02/12/cracki...sing-backtrack/

- send me a gift.

NOTE: Be careful when cracking WEP networks... It's ridiculously easy to crack WEP but the conseguences may be not so ridiculous. Think mcfly, think!

he said he didn't want to crack a WEP encrypted network, he just wanted to know what the key is!

Oh, sorry guys.. maybe I need to sleep :)

But I think we didn't understand what Antonio really wants. He wants to discover a WEP key without asking the owner for it and without having phisical access to the computer on that network, so this is a tipical case of WEP cracking :)

Maybe in Antonio's point of view the word "crack" just means keygen or other stuff...

IHMO
