Cracking WEP with aircrack-ng

So i'll have to apologize for a severe lack of posts, i just moved from Texas to Northern VA and its been hell finding a place to rent. We finally found a place but the cable man doesnt come till monday, now that wont do i need my net fix. thankfully there are plenty of wifi networks i can see from inside the house...

You should also start airodump-ng to capture replies. **we started airodump on step1

at this point your airodump capture should really be filling up with a ton of data packets as we do the arp replay attack


################
# Step 6: Start cracking #
################

we can run aircrack while the arp replay attack is ongoing, so you dont have to stop the arp replay or fake authentication sessions.
