I am wondering if this is normal and correct, and if not, what exactly do I need to do to fix the issue...

I just ran airodump for hours and collected about 400,000 packets from a specific MAC and only 2500 IV's were collected from it....

Is that normal? or do I need to update my driver for my Gold Orinoco 11b/g Card to get more IV's etc.?

Well, I then opened Aircrack and I typed "0" and it said not enough IV's....

Did I type the right thing? or do I really not have enough IV's for Aircrack to even run...?

Also, when I typed "1" (read IV's from specific pcap file) and draged the test cap file with the collected packets and IV's into the box, it failed to open with the "fopen ("C:/Documents,rb) failed" error...

Did I type the right thing? Must I specify the MAC with the collected IV's that I want to crack to use Aircrack correctly? If so, what command do I type?

When I installed Aircrack, I also installed the WildPackets Atheros 3.0.0.111a Wireless LAN Driver for my Orinoco card...

Was that the right driver for me to use?

I got the driver from here

Also, I dont get a perfect signal from the AP that I am collecting packets from...in airodump...the specific PWR usually stays between 20-30..

Is that good?

Please help...
