mac filtering? - gkman - 08-30-2011
hey there.
I got kicked off of the wireless network.
I know the Password hasn't been changed as a fact. so I suspect that what is keeping me off of the network is the mac filtering.( if u have other suggestion please do tell)
please explain to me how to get back on the network and stay hidden from anyone who might be checking.
I am a total newbie so please make sure to use stupid people language.
Also- I don't know if this is important but I am using windows xp- I can also run Ubuntu 11 of of my USB- (I have no access to internet from the computer i am trying to get back to the wireless network)
thank you in advanced for helping

Ok i think i can help a little.
You need to boot into your Ubuntu USB.
Fire up a Terminal, Type- without quotes "sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng"
or you'll probably find it under Package Manager.
Then you'll need macchanger - "sudo apt-get install macchanger"
Use airodump-ng to monitor the access-point you wish to connect to, You'll have to wait for someone to connect to the access-point and note there MAC-add. Then you can use macchanger to change your mac-add to the one you have written down (which is allowed through the filter).
There could be other ways but this will work. I use Backtrack myself as all the tools you'll need are already in with the distro.
Hope this helps..

I'm not sure about that either. But you can kick the other users off with aircrack-ng program and then authenticate before the user you kicked off has a chance to.
(tip: use one wireless adapter for booting the other user off and another one to authenticate to the router.)
