Failure To Associate With, Packet Injection Issues

[lanane]

I'm having some problems with reaver. I have a internal Wifi Card that does not do Packet Injection RTL8188EE. In fact it runs absolutely horribly on Linux period. The other card I have does packet injection rt2800usb I bought specifically for Linux.

I wanted to do some security penetration on my own router and start learning more about Network Security. I have my A+ and Net+ I'd like to move onto Security certifications. I also need to learn more about Linux and get those Certs.

I will try to keep out repetitive information and limit the post as much as possible.

1) Run IfConfig note the Mac Address of existing Wifi Adapter, 1X:0X:bF:6X:1D:4X in this case

2) Insert Wifi Card.Run ifConfig again. Note which Wlan the new card is by the mac address. In My case it is Wlan1

3) airmon-ng start wlan1

Interface	Chipset		Driver

wlan1		Unknown 	rt2800usb - [phy1]
				(monitor mode enabled on mon0)
wlan0		Unknown 	rtl8188ee - [phy0]

4) airodump-ng mon0

XX:XD:XE:X9:XC:X8  -32     2421      294    2   6  54   WPA  TKIP   PSK  Lanane Family           
 X8:FX:BX:1X:XX:87  -62        3        0    0   1  54e  WPA2 CCMP   PSK  PapaGrammyZim           
 FE:F5:28:A0:C8:F8  -66        1        0    0  10  

So On ....

5) reaver -i mon0 -b XX:XD:XE:X9:XC:X8 -vv

I get .....

)

6) I then tried aireplay-ng -9 wlan1

ioctl(SIOCSIWMODE) failed: Device or resource busy

ARP linktype is set to 1 (Ethernet) - expected ARPHRD_IEEE80211,
ARPHRD_IEEE80211_FULL or ARPHRD_IEEE80211_PRISM instead.  Make
sure RFMON is enabled: run 'airmon-ng start wlan1 <#>'
Sysfs injection support was not found either.

I then got a popup box asking for my network password. It then reconnected my wifi that was supposed to be in monitor mode.

Actually it looks like it connected my internal wifi, not the external USB one

7) After some tinkering around I typed in ... Typed in aireplay-ng -9 mon2

17:59:58  Trying broadcast probe requests...
17:59:59  Injection is working!
18:00:00  Found 1 AP 

18:00:00  Trying directed probe requests...
18:00:00  XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX - channel: 6 - 'Lanane Family'
18:00:00  Ping (min/avg/max): 1.319ms/3.800ms/10.868ms Power: -34.55
18:00:00  29/30:  96%

Also if I test for packet injection by typing in aireplay-ng -9 wlan1 or aireplay-ng -9 wlan2 I get an error .... It only says I have packet injection when I check the mon not the wlan.


After doing all this I am still getting :

[!] WARNING: Failed to associate with XX:XD:XE:X9:XC:X8 (ESSID: Lanane Family)

The router is literally 10 feet away from me.

Wireshark is your best friend here. Make sure you are actually sending out associate requests and see exactly how the router is responding. Also wifi is very .. how do i say 'finicky' meaning that sometimes atleast im my experience things just simply wont work and you need to unplug the card or in rare cases give your pc a reboot.

I will look into Wireshark. For some reason I just did thee following and it validated packet injection. My problem now is I can't find a single AP out of 3 locations, my own router included, that are able to be cracked by Reaver. Wash always shows no reslts. Anyways here is what I did from a fresh restart and it works perfectly

su Root

airmon-ng start wlan1

aireplay-ng -9 mon0

airodump-ng mon0 (SHOWED MULTIPLE AP AT MULTIPLE LOCATIONS)

wash -i mon0 (NO RESULTS EVER SHOW UP)

Testing Packet Injections works flawlessly and shows nearby AP

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At this point I need to try different tools to test crack my router. I want the program that is more friendly to beginners but willing to try anything.
