Wifi Hack - r.praveenraj04 - 09-02-2013
I tried to hack wifi using backtrack and inbuilt Ralink wifi adapter in my laptop. But, the problem is backtrack doesn't support the inbuilt adapter. Is their any other method to hack the wifi. Please teach me..

First of all don't go posting the same question multiple times it's annoying and considered spam.
First check that the wifi card isn't just disabled type
Code:
ifconfigThis will list all your network interfaces the wireless will most likely be called something along the lines of wlan0 if it is down try
Code:
ifconfig wlan0 upto turn it on, it may be a good idea to check the aircrack website to make sure your card is supported it may be that you just need to install some other drivers to get this working.

At last i found the answer for this :Smile:
It's seems that backtrack won't be able to identify our inbuilt wifi adapter when we run backtrack in the virtual machine.
Thus you have to run backtrack in base machine.
To do this:
1.Download backtrack iso file
2.Download unetbootin-windows-585 ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/unetbootin/ ) from this link. This file helps to run your pen drive as a boot-able drive.
3.Mount the backtrack iso file using step 2 software inside the pen drive
4.After step 3 completion, restart your system
5.In bios setting, select usb drive and save
6.Backtrack will get loaded.
7.Now if you use airmon-ng, your wifi adapter will be displayed.
Thanks
