If it's hard going...
here's some tips or maybe just one, I don't know how much I want to type.
Firstly, if you want to crack WEP you can't use an Orinoco card. You need a Prisim based one and 5 - 10 gigs of free RAM or HD. If you do get an Orinoco one a silver can be hacked into having higher encryption capabilities (basically it will become a gold card). You'll have to search out how to do that though, there's loads on it. |

Exactly what I was thinking....
The Barriers are breaking down but here is the basics...
For Ease of Sniffing/Stumbling/Setup under linux... a Prism2 Based Card is easiest. Kismet, Wellenreiter, ethereal, airsnort all work with them just fine and the actual install process under a semi recent kernel is no problem. Wep Cracking... if you can sniff with the card, then running the dump through wepcrack is no problem... for a more automated approach a prism card is required. In this case, either will work... lucent is just more steps... Many people have Lucents running and workign just fine under linux... I wish I was one of them... I have had nothing but hassels and no idea why its such an issue... My prism works fine with Kismet, though I cant seem to get Wellenreiter working yet... biggest complain is almost no Prism cards have external Ant Jacks...
