canary Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Hey there, I need your help. I was trying to hack my wifi, but there was a problem. The problem was after I changed my wifi's password, and got the handshake, I tried to crack the easiest password which is 12345678 with dictionary attack and it didn't work. After that I added the last password I used in the word list and it worked but my current password is 12345678. How could this be possible? And how to solve this stupid problem?

TheLaughingMan Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Did you type in the password or copy and paste it into the password field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I typed 12345678 by myself, but I copied and pasted the password that I use daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sentorion Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 It sounds like the password didn't change in the wifi to are hacking. Or you are using a capture file from before the password change. Verify the password change by forgetting wifi and then connecting with the new password, if the password has indeed changed, then make sure the capture file you are testing is the capture you took after the password change and not before. I don't see how it could be any other issue as nothing in the wifi handshake contains a previously used password and still manages to authenticate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed my password and connected to it with my phone and captured the handshake. But nothing happened.

If the new password works when logging into your router then all is good there. Clear out all your old captures so you can make sure you are selecting the new capture after doing so. Depending on what you are using to capture handshakes the filenames can be very similar and easy to get mixed up when having multiple captures from the same MAC address.

Thanks for your attention, but it would be simple. I re-name all captured files before saving, so it is not that possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F0x3nB0x3n Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Assuming it isn't an incorrect capture file....could it be something super simple like not clicking a save button, or needing to reboot the router after the password change is made?
