Hack a wi-fi network with WEP security




1) First we need to scan for available wireless networks.
Theres this great tool for windows to do this.. called “NetStumbler” or Kismet for Windows 
and Linux and KisMac for Mac.
The two most common encryption types are:
1) WEP
2) WAP
WEP i.e Wire Equivalent Privacy is not consideres as safe as WAP 
i.e Wireless Application Protocol.
WEP have many flaws that allows a hacker to crack a WEP key easily.. whereas

WAP is currently the most secure and best option to secure a wi-fi network..
It can’t be easily cracked as WEP because the only way to retreive a WAP key is to use 
a brute-force attack or dictionary atack.
Here I’ll tell you how to Crack WEP
To crack WEP we will be using Live Linux distribution called BackTrack to crack WEP.
BackTrack have lots of preinstalled softwares for this very purpose..
The tools we will be using on Backtrack are:
Kismet – a wireless network detector
airodump – captures packets from a wireless router
aireplay – forges ARP requests
aircrack – decrypts the WEP keys

1) First of all we have to find a wireless access point along with its bssid, essid and 
channel number. To do this we will run kismet by opening up the terminal and typing in 
kismet. It may ask you for the appropriate adapter which in my case is ath0. You can 
see your device’s name by typing in the command iwconfig.


2) To be able to do some of the later things, your wireless adapter must be put into 

monitor mode. Kismet automatically does this and as long as you keep it open, your 
wireless adapter will stay in monitor mode.


3) In kismet you will see the flags Y/N/0. Each one stands for a different type of 

encryption. In our case we will be looking for access points with the WEP encryption. 
Y=WEP N=OPEN 0=OTHER(usually WAP).


4) Once you find an access point, open a text document and paste in the networks 

broadcast name (essid), its mac address (bssid) and its channel number. To get the 
above information, use the arrow keys to select an access point and hit <ENTER> 
to get more information about it.

5) The next step is to start collecting data from the access point with airodump. 

Open up a new terminal and start airodump by typing in the command:
airodump-ng -c [channel#] -w [filename] –bssid [bssid] [device]
In the above command airodump-ng starts the program, the channel of your access 

point goes after -c , the file you wish to output the data goes after -w , and the MAC 
address of the access point goes after –bssid. The command ends with the device 
name. Make sure to leave out the brackets.


6) Leave the above running and open another terminal. Next we will generate some 

fake packets to the target access point so that the speed of the data output will 
increase. Put in the following command:
aireplay-ng -1 0 -a [bssid] -h 00:11:22:33:44:55:66 -e [essid] [device]
In the above command we are using the airplay-ng program. The -1 tells the program 

the specific attack we wish to use which in this case is fake authentication with the 
access point. The 0 cites the delay between attacks, -a is the MAC address of the 
target access point, -h is your wireless adapters MAC address, -e is the name (essid) 
of the target access point, 
and the command ends with the your wireless adapters device name.


7) Now, we will force the target access point to send out a huge amount of packets that 

we will be able to take advantage of by using them to attempt to crack the WEP key. 
Once the following command is executed, check your airodump-ng terminal and you 
should see the ARP packet count to start to increase. The command is:
aireplay-ng -3 -b [bssid] -h 00:11:22:33:44:5:66 [device]
In this command, the -3 tells the program the specific type of attack which in this case is

packet injection, -b is the MAC address of the target access point, -h is your wireless 
adapters MAC address, and the wireless adapter device name goes at the end.
 Once you have collected around 50k-500k packets, you may begin the attempt to break 

the WEP key. The command to begin the cracking process is:
aircrack-ng -a 1 -b [bssid] -n 128 [filename].ivs
In this command the -a 1 forces the program into the WEP attack mode, the -b is the 

targets MAC address, and the -n 128 tells the program the WEP key length. If you don’t 
know the -n , then leave it out. This should crack the WEP key within seconds. The more 
packets you capture, the bigger chance you have of cracking the WEP key.

Easy Steps To Hack Unlimited Time In Internet Cafe's

   


Steps:

1. Create a new text document.


2. Then type CMD in it.


3. And then save it as softek.bat
NOTE: (Make sure the file does not end wit .txt, but with .bat)

4. Go to the location were you saved the .bat file and run it. If you've done this correctly, the Command Prompt should open.

5. Now that Command Prompt is open, in it type the following: cd\windows (This will change the directory to Windows)

6. Then type in: regedit
(This will get you to the registry editor guide)

7. Now navigate to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Appevents>software>classes>microsoft>windows>current version>internet settings>policies>system

8. Then on the right panel where it says Disable Task manager, right click on it, and scroll down to modify, and than change the value of it to "0".

9. And then open Windows Task Manager
(CTRL+ALT+DELETE) (CTRL+SHIFT+ESCAPE !win 7)

10. Now disable the Internet Cafe's timer.

>>>That's it, now enjoy unlimited surfing BUT when they get you, I don't know you!

New Generation of technology, Tech-savvy kidz


Emotiv EPOC neuroheadset review [GEEK]

           The telepathy device you were looking for (or not)


To Geeks like me, phones and tablets are our bread and butter, but our love for tech is by no means limited to them. So imagine our excitement when we got the opportunity to test a gadget which reads your thoughts and allows you to do cool things with it on your computer.

The gadget in question is called EPOC and is made by Emotiv. It’s a futuristic looking headset, which reads your brain activity via the scalp of your head and translates it into various actions. With that in mind, I was particularly excited with Professor Xavier and his powerful telepathic powers immediately popping into my head. Sadly, this isn’t the case… yet.
The Epoc is a neuro-signal acquisition and processing wireless headset. It uses 16 sensors to capture the electric signals produced by your brain. Put simply, it’s a thought detector. But alongside this, it’s also a feelings and expressions grabber, so if you blink, smile or sneeze – it’ll know. Let’s take a closer look at the product itself.

Unboxing

Emotive has packed the EPOC headset in a handy box sporting a minimalist design. It has a handle on top so you can easily carry the headset around. Emotive has thrown in everything you need to get started, which is kind of them, as chances are you don’t have the accessories just laying around your house.
Back to the contents of the box at hand, inside there’s a 16-pack of contact pads, which are placed in sockets on the headset to make contact with your head. To improve the signal strength there’s also a bottle of conductive liquid to keep those sensors hydrated. There’s also a USB receiver to connect with a computer, as well as a miniUSB cable and an instructions manual with a software CD.

Design and construction

The Epoc headset is entirely made of plastic has a base similar to a regular pair of headphones. Where it differs are the two octopus arm-like extensions which warp around your head. They are flexible in order to get the best possible contact and at the end have sockets for the soft contact pads. At the top, there’s a switch for turning the headset on or off.

User interface

Emotiv have designed a specialized software, which shows the EPOC’s capabilities. It’s broken down to five different sections:
The first one acts as a status check for all the contact pads. They light in four different colors: green for great connection, yellow of okay-ish connection, red for bad connection and black for no connection at all. Preferably, they should all light up green, but we’ve had cases where the headset worked perfectly fine despite a few red or yellow sensors.
However, when I tried it everything went green and I felt like a Jedi summoned to protect the universe from the Dark side and bring balance to the Force. The other tabs really showed me what the neuroheadset is all about.
Called “Expressiv suite”, the second tab shows a blue face, which actually mimics the facial expressions that you are doing at the moment. So if you blink, it blinks. If you smile, it smiles, and so on.
Next up is the “Affectiv suite”. As its name suggests it detects what affects you at the moment and displays your current emotions on the screen. Those can be happiness, indifference, etc. It’s pretty cool to observe at first but you quickly get bored. Unlike it, the next tab labeled “Cognitiv suite” is where the meat is.
In the Cognitiv suite you get to control a virtual cube using just your thoughts. There are various operations that you can do with it like push it backwards/ pull it towards you, make it go up or down or even rotate it in various directions.
Here’s a video where we try to show the whole magic taking place. We first demonstrate how the software captures brainwaves and translates them into actions on the screen. Then, we get to the really interesting stuff – playing a game, where you control the main character with the headset.


Conclusion;
The Emotiv EPOC will not turn you into a Jedi, but it’s a solid step into the future of doing everyday tasks with your mind. Imagine turning your PC on or off by just thinking about it, or pausing a movie when you need to grab some more snacks.
Let’s not forget the people with disabilities, who can use the full potential of a personal computer with nothing but their thoughts. This can and should rewrite the history of computer interaction, but unfortunately, the technology isn’t quite ready just yet.
For now, the Emotiv EPOC headset is little more than a gimmick. A nice gadget to show off to your friends and make them scratch their heads in disbelief, until they realize there’s little practical use for it. Its future however is much bigger than this or at least, that’s what we hope.
