Crack a WEP secured wireless network using aircrack-ng

Watch a WEP secured network get cracked in less than 5 minutes. The wireless chipset used is the Intel 3945, the driver is iwl3945. Using airmon-ng, I scan for wifi signals and choose one that’s using WEP. I use a special wpa_supplicant configuration to get my wireless card to authenticate to the network, because I aireplay doesn’t work quite right with this chipset. Once I catch an ARP packet, I can start injecting, and keep going until I get the WEP key. Take the colons out of the key, drop it into your wireless client and you’re on the network. .
