Thanks for your answers.

Do you have an .iso anywhere? You burn the file ending in .iso to your CD.

Any reason you don't want to use BT4?

no i don't have any resion , but as i know that i have to burn on dvd for bt4, so i thaught i can use bt3 which can burn on cd.

Any way i burn the cd successfully, still trying to see how to use this cd.

thanks

First find out the interface of your card with

iwconfig

it looks like it'll be ath0

Assuming the interface is ath0 do:

airmon-ng start ath0

This will put your card into monitor mode and create a kind of "virtual" interface named mon0.

Failing that you can (try) and put your interface into monitor mode manually using

iwconfig ath0 mode monitor

i used the above commands still getting errors, never get into monitor mode at all

airmon-ng start ath0

shows this
interface chipset driver
wifi- atheros madwifi-ng
ath0 atheros madwifi-ng VAP (parent wifi0) (VAP cannot be put in monitor mode)


i try this also
iwconfig ath0 mode monitor
shows this error like
error for wireless request "set mode" (8B06)
set failed on device ath0 : Invalid argument

You could be using the wrong interface. Using iwconfig without any arguments will show you your available wireless interfaces.

i appricate for your answers,
when i give this command iwconfig then i got the below message exactly same, please have a look.

Lo no wireless extensions.
Eth0 no wireless extensions.
Wifi0 no wireless extensions.

Ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID” “ Nickname”

I hope now eassy to rectify my problem.

error for wireless request "set mode" (8B06)
set failed on device ath0 : Invalid argument

Ok, the error you're getting is because you cant put the interface into monitor mode, although it seems to be the correct interface.
try:
http://madwifi-project.org/wiki/UserDocs/MonitorModeInterface

I've never had this problem before so cant offer much advice but i'm sure we'll get it working eventually

If the above doesnt help try using "wifi0" instead of "ath0". Someone on the remote-exploit forums suggested this:

To enable monitor mode use this
bt ~ # airmon-ng stop ath0
bt ~ # airmon-ng start wifi0
now you have ath0 in monitor mode
To go back in managed mode use:
bt ~ # airmon-ng stop ath0
bt ~ # wlanconfig ath create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode managed

Hope something helps

yes the above cammands are working when i did this
airmon-ng stop ath0 shows .... VAP(parent wifi0)(VAP destroyed)
airmon-ng start wifi0 shows ..... (monitor mode enabled)

when i give the below commands
airmon-ng stop ath0
wlanconfig ath create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode managed shows .. ath0


but my aim is to get my own wep key, so i like to know based on my ath0 how to get wep key. I already watch many vedios and tried the things according to vedios but not success.

like you give me few commands but i don't know after this commands what other commands i have to use to get my own wep key.

if you can let me know that will be great.

thanks

i believe its because you cant use ifconfig/iwconfig with madwifi drivers? i had backtrack installed on my eee for like 20minutes because i couldnt manually do anything with the card, as had to use madwifi tools couldnt just use the regular ones with said driver.

i believe its because you cant use ifconfig/iqconfig with madwifi drivers? i had backtrack installed on my eee for like 20minutes because i couldnt manually do anything with the card, as had to use madwifi tools couldnt just use the regular ones with said driver.

if i can't use ifconfig/iqconfig with madwifi drivers then what is any other procedure to get success in my case.

thanks

thanks

that i dont know, i dont know all the new programs that replace ifconfig/iwconfig, if it has madwifi tools installed i think its supposed to be like "madwifi ifconfig atho down" or something like that.

ok guy i am back here this time i sit on diffrent computer and i tried this bt3 cd. so i can disable & enable monitor mode successfully.

when i give this command
airmon-ng -- shows eth1
airmon-ng stop eth1 -- now monitor mode disabled
ifconfig eth1 down
macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 ethi
then shows mac's below
mac 00:0c:41:62:43:3e
faked mac 00:11:22:33:44:55

After this i gave this command
airmon-ng start eth1 -- now monitor mode enabled
airodump-ng eth1 -- shows bunch of info, so i choose this bssid, ch, essid below
00:21:91:F8:32:50 4 F***
00:21:7C:E8:8F:31 11 ABC


airodump-ng -C 4 -W test -bssid 00:21:91:F8:32:50 eth1
when i give above command the i get this message below
Notice : you specified "-bssid" did you mean "-bssid insted"
Notice : channel range already given

airodump-ng -C 11 -W test -bssid 00:21:7C:E8:8F:31 eth1
when i give above command the i get this message below
Notice : you specified "-bssid" did you mean "-bssid insted"
Notice : channel range already given

the above all steps i tried two times by restarting from boot computer and stuck always at this point, i don't know what i am doing wrong.

hope some one correct me

thanks

You'll want to use --bssid (notice the double dash).

Also, im not sure what the -W is for. Do you mean -w (lowercase)?

SORRY that is my mistake of typing all of them are in lower case only -c & -w.
