Hack WiFi WPA2/WPA/ WiFi Passwords in 3 Steps 2016 |
What is Reaver ?
Reaver is a Linux based software which brute force the WPS pins on the router which has wps / Push Button enabled and it comes pre-loaded with Kali Linux OS.
What is WPS or Push Button ?
WPS/Push Button option comes with many routers / modems in which while connecting to a network you can avoid entering a password and can simply connect to your network by pressing a button inside your modem / router.
Hack WiFi WPA2/WPA/ WiFi Passwords in 3 Steps 2016
- WPS ( Push Button ) Enabled WIFI Network in Range
- Wireless Adapter
- Kali Linux OS
Get Started
Start Your Kali Linux OS and open terminal
1. Turn On your monitor interface by typing the below command
airmon-ng start wlan0
2. Check if there are any wps enabled wifi in your range.
To check the WPS enabled network we will use wash command so type the below command and it will list all those networks which have wps enabled.
wash -i mon0 -CNow this will display all those networks which have wps enabled so chose any network which has strong signals and after copy its BSSID
3. Start Cracking by typing the below command
reaver -i mon0 -b BSSID -vv
Here in this command " reaver -i mon0 -b BSSID -vv " in BSSID paste the BSSID number which you want to crack and which you copied in past from above step and wait for about hours because this needs much time even 3-5 hours depending upon the pin code of the router which reaver will brute force and if the pin matches it will crack the password for you and will display the password.
How can You protect yourself from this attack ?
Well in my opinion for security reasons just disable the WPS option or if you really want to enable it then create hard and end custom pin as many routers come with default pin code which reaver can easily crack.
