Mac80211

Mac80211 is the new wireless stack of the Linux kernel. It is included in the kernel since 2.6.22, but drivers are only included since 2.6.24.

The following drivers use mac80211 (not all have been tested to work with aircrack-ng):

acx1xx (Acx)
adm8211 (ADMtek)
at76_usb (Atmel)
ath5k (Atheros A/B/G/Super-G)
ath9k (Atheros xspaN)
b43 and b43legacy (Broadcom)
iwl3945 (not to be confused with ipw3945/ipwraw)
iwlagn (formerly iwl4965)
libertas_tf (Marvell Libertas)
p54 (PrismGT in SoftMAC mode, but also supports FullMAC cards)
rt2x00 (includes rt2400pci, rt2500pci, rt2500usb, rt61pci and rt73usb)
rtl8180 (not to be confused with r8180 AKA r8180-sa2400, also supports RTL8185 cards)
rtl8187 (not to be confused with r8187 - RTL8187B supported in 2.6.27+)
zd1211rw (starting with 2.6.25)
In general, these drivers will mostly work with aircrack-ng, but there may be exceptions. Here is a list of drivers (with appropriate patches) that people have reported as working successfully with the aircrack-ng suite:

acx1xx (Acx)
ath5k
b43 and b43legacy (Broadcom)
iwl3945
iwlagn
rt73usb
rtl8180
rtl8187
zd1211rw (no fragmentation attack support)

Sniffing SSL traffic using MITM attack / ettercap, fragrouter, webmitm and dnsspoof.

Before reading on this guide is for educational purposes only. I take no responsibility from what people do with this info. First thing is to get fragrouter. I don't know if you can use other tools provided with the backtrack, there are 100 ways to skin a cat and this is just my way. http://packetstormsecurity.nl/UNIX/IDS/nidsbench/fragrouter.html There are lots of things that you can do with fragrouter but we are going to use fragrouter to setup IP forwarding. We do this with this command : Code: fragrouter -B1Squash that window and put it to one side. Now open another shell and we will start dnsspoof with this command Code: dnsspoof -i ath0 (or whatever network interface you are using)Again put that window to one side and lets load up webmitm. Webmitm will issue our ssl cert to the victim so we can decrypt the traffic we capture. Start webmitm by typing Code: webmitm -dNow we can start the arp spoof. To start ettercap type Code: ettercap -T -M arp:remote /router addy/ /victim a...
