Best thing Is, to get yourself a copy of BackTrack. This has all the tools you need.

You can run It as a live CD, or Install It. For first use of Reaver, use the "apt-get update" command to Install and/or upgrade new software packages. Then start your Interface (wlan0, wlan1, whatever It Is), and hit the following:
reaver -i (your Interface) -b (bssid) -vv

well actually i am using backtrack but i didn't like it(time to boot, speed...
) so i installed ubuntu and its a lot better than backtrack, time to boot is like 3 s, backtrack is like 5 m so i prefer to use ubuntu, i know its easy to install reaver on backtrack but i need it on ubuntu

That's fair enough, and I appreciate your choice In Ubuntu.

Personally, I wouldn't focus on the duration of boot time In BackTrack, to compromise the options and features I'm after. But that's just me.

It would be helpful if you post your error message itself too.

the commands are:

:~$ sudo su

cd to your extracted directory

:~# ./configure
:~# make && make install

but you need to make sure you have libpcap and libsqlite installed, also you need to be root to perform all the commands.

:~$ sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev libsqlite3-dev

Please share your results.

what do you mean "cd to your extracted directory" ?

Do this:

Download reaver-1.4.tar.gz from its site.
Copy it to Public ( You can copy it anywhere you want)
Now follow these commands:

:~$ tar -xzf reaver-1.4.tar.gz

(The contents will be extracted to reaver-1.4 folder)

:~$ cd reaver-1.4

(This will cd to reaver-1.4 folder, cd = change directory)

Now follow the previous command I have posted. If you do not succeed, post again with the results you got.
