Cracking a WiFi network on Android?

[Ad Fundum]

Hi there,

I was wondering if there is any app at that allows the cracking of a WiFi network that is secured with a WEP password?

Thanks in advance!

PS: Before any of you start wondering, I'm not using it for illegal purposes. If I wanted to do that, I would just use a laptop. Thanks.

No response?

WEP cracking apps need compatible wifi drivers as well as code that supports the processor architecture.

WEP cracking can be done cheap on a PC.

Yes, but I'm looking for a way to do it on my Android phone Is there any way that exists at this moment?

I think the closes you'll get right now is the app named
'Penetrate'
Its in the market.

It calculates the default password for a wifi network.
Some networks dont work.
But this gave me free wifi in a number of times

can not be done because the driver does not support monitor mode, to my knowledge.

Yea but that's for American routers mostly, and I'm from Belgium

Actually Penetrate is done by a portuguese guy and supports mostly european routers like thomson and dlink, i already accessed a lot of thomson networks

And there is no other way?

Android is based on a Linux-kernel, but that doesn't mean it can run Linux-applications like aircrack-ng without changing anything. You can use the Penetrate app in Belgium however, there are quite a lot of Thompson SpeedTouch modems (Tele2) here that can be cracked using that app.

It doesnt really crack the password eh?

It just sees where people were too lazy to change the default password.

Today I was at a spot with 12 different internet spots (my friends home), and went to try if I could acces my friends internet. Not even one of the 12 (including the WEP based of my friend) was able to be calculated with Penetrate ..

Exactly, it uses an algorithm to generate the default pass. So if the user has changed it then it won't work.The old BTHomehubs were caught by this too but they released an update to fix it

penetrate doesn't seem to work with us routers....tried at several different locations today and none could be cracked

If you say you are trying to crack a network legally, you cant be serious. If you dont know the password to a network, go to the router and reset it. If you do not own the router, then it's illegal to try and crack it.

Life is sooo boring doing only legal stuff...

You can also try Router Keygen, basically the same thing but open source.

Although it supports more networks and has more features for free.

Not that you want to read the pages, but at this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=508871 a bunch of guys are working on something like this for the G1 (and probably similar phones).
That's my 2 cents...
