RE: I Just Powered Up ~81,000 Steem. That's Cool. You're Cool. Cool.
very nice explanation! I love internet but I am not good enough to understand how to hack or to understand something more than the normal open browser and search stuff.
for example I would like to find the wpa password of my neighbour as I don't have yet internet so for few days I am using my phone as router and it sucks.
Any good advice is welcome hahaha
Well, if you're trying to bust WPA of any variant, I don't think that you're going to have much luck. You need linux (preferably), a WLAN card that can be switched to monitor mode, a massive rainbow table, some experience with the linux command line, and a lot of luck that comes in the form of your neighbor having a weak passphrase. Now if it was WEP, which you will very rarely encounter in the wild these days, then that's an entirely other story since WEP is completely broken.
Have you thought about asking your neighbor for access while offering to toss a few bucks a month?
I was thinking to do it. But being moved in this house since few days I feel a bit shy asking him. By the way I had the engineer coming last week to set up my internet access but he didn't turn up.
I had to book another appointment that will be next Friday.
Talking about the WEP and WPA yes I read several posts and how "easier" could be access by aircrack-ng but I have a mac and it is hard to get linux etc etc.. so never mind :) I wanted to know if you were aware of any shortcut.
Thank you for your prompt message :) and I hope to see you between my followers... as you should know how someone could feel not being a whale as we registered in Steemit in the same time last year
Mac OS = Unix pretty much. Did you know that?! Pretty cool haha.
Well, I'm here to stay so you'll certainly be seeing more of me!
Ehhehe i wrote to you as well in steemit chat! Have a look mate
Will do!
