One that does is the <a href="http://ebaymedia.com/ebaystores/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=5" title="Wireless Hackers Security Disk" rel="nofollow">Wireless Hackers Security Disk</a> but it is for sale on eBay for $6.99.

I don't have enough traffic on my network to generate enough weak packets to make injection a worth while adventure. I have used BackTrack 2, and have a post hiding in limbo of how to install it into a Parallels VM, but I haven't ever tried WEP cracking with it. I will look around and see if I can find another Live CD/DVD with gkismet on it. Cocoa I have the same issue, Felipe.

I believe the amount of packets I receive is based on how much traffic is going thru the wireless network. Way too slow to be worth anything. I did try Backtract 2 which is a bootable CD and a WUSB54g vers. 4. This works great except for one thing. I am not too great at linux so I can't stand having to remember all of the commands in order to get things done. An alternative would be gkismet but I do not think it is in the backtrack 2 disk. Do you know of any other distro's out there that are in a bootable format that come with the gkismet app?

I haven't tried in a while, though. Maybe I'll give it another shot here soon. Cocoa No luck yet, Felipe. I haven’t tried in a while, though. Maybe I’ll give it another shot here soon.

Your English is great. We get a number of people from different countries posting here and on my other blog, <a href="http://www.averageadmins.com/" title="averageadmins.com" rel="nofollow">averageadmins.com</a> so we've learned how to decipher broken English. just don't ever expect me to speak any other languages with you as I am terrible with all of them. I even have issues with English fro time to time! :) Let me know how it works when you get the sticks in. It appears to work great with my setup. However, I haven't been patient enough to wait for all the needed packets so I can try and decrypt the key. I'll holler at you via e-mail soon. Jeff No, r0sk. Your English is great.

I hope it runs so well with wep wireless and packet injection on macbook-kismac. I hope to read your mail soon (and to write more comments here -sorry cuz of my damn english-).
