whats the right cMAC command on KALI 2?

[1stcowgirl]

hi friends.
i want to change my mac address to a specific one.
so i looked it up and found several commands.
some are doing something and some are not.
someone mentioned that some may work on Kali 1.0 but not on kali 2-2016.

also iv noticed users that mix command and make a salad from Wlan0 vs Wlan0mon.

so please help me.

im using kali 2016 2
if got only one ALFA card connected.
whan i ask "airmon-ng" - the interface is wlan0
when i ask "airmon-ng start wlan0" - the interface is wlan0mon.

i want to use reaver on a target AP but i want to change my MAC to be the same as my Target AP.
so what command should i use?

i tried "macchanger wlan0mon -m XXXXXXXXXXXXX" but it say : :could not change mac, interface is up or insufficient permissions or resource busy

i tried that command with wlan0 and got "no such device"

thank you

Use these commands

airmon-ng start wlan0

You now have wlan0mon

ifconfig wlan0mon down
macchanger -m 00:11:22:33:44:55 wlan0mon
ifconfig wlan0mon up

There is also a random mac selection

ifconfig wlan0mon down
macchanger -r wlan0mon
ifconfig wlan0mon up

See macchanger --help

Suggest you NOT use -r with reaver as after you spoof your mac you MUST enter that mac in the reaver command line with the --pin= command. Otherwise reaver may not obtain the WPA Key.

Remember that network manager will overwrite this mac if it tries to access a network unless you also enter the mac in the cloned mac address entry in networkmanager menus. See the thread netmanmac.

Thank you, thank you thank you.
your answers are always coherent, thank you.


p.s.
after hitting that wall with locked wps, i ran the *mdk3 wlan0mon d* (parallel to) *mdk3 wlan0mon b*.
after couple of days, the target AP shared his problems with me and said that his ISP will get him a new D-Link Router (it was netgear at start).
so today i dont see the AP name under WASH. (used to be shon_2.4), instead there is a new AP that im guessing is my previous target.

anyway, i noticed there is no WPS.
its not showing on wash but showing on airodump.
this is WPA2-PSK.
anyway cracking this without the need of wordlist?
thank you.
