I got the cracking to work after I went from 5d4 back to the stable
release (5b). Although when I chose the brute force attack that tries
all characters, I get the "cracking" progress indicator. But it never
moves forward. Maybe I am impatient. I imagine this takes a LONG time
to do. The mathematics involved kind of boggle the mind. So I am just
going to let it sit. Perhaps overnight.
I know for a fact that the access point I am attempting to crack is 128
bit. And these brute force attacks are only 40-bit. Is there support
planned for a 128/104/100 brute force attack? I am thinking that the
time it would take to complete would be extreme. And maybe this is why
the option doesn't exist.
Mick, this is a wonderful tool. I have had some great fun with my Mac.
Netstumbler pales in comparison. ;-)
