Hi All,
Let me apologise in advance if this is a completely n00bish post and has been answered anywhere else. Information on madwifi-ng + aireplay 2.41 is extremely sparse (in fact to my knowledge non-existent).
I've been having some trouble with Aireplay from the Aircrack 2.41 Suite. I am running a Netgear WAG511 pcmcia card (Atheros Chipset) with latest madwifi-ng drivers. Overall I have no difficulty with other wifi applications (standard injection looks great and kismet-devel is running beautifully) I am however having a little difficulty with aireplay.
Problem 1:
When running a fake auth attack against certain APs, (aireplay -1 x) I get a error saying:
packet < 30 bytes
when tethereal shows that not to be correct and even shows the AP responding with what appears to be the next step of the association handshake.
Problem 2:
When running with -4 (chopchop) mode, I am receiving Deauths from 75% of target APs whether i am associated as a client (-h switch) or not. Could this possibly be an ACK related issue to do with throttling? I will force my card to have the fake MAC address and lower rate and update in another post (perhaps this will help?). I have only gotten "chopchop" mode to work with one AP so far (and that was a 'useless' "spanning tree" packet with no IP header -

).
Any other suggestions that I can try to prevent/fix these from happening? Hair being pulled out in clumps + gnashing of teeth!!! Thanks all in advance. Aircrack et al are pretty nifty.
regards and much appreciated...
