BackTrack - Wireless network interface with command line

Hello,
I have some Difficulty with connecting a wireless interface with command line and would like your opinion on how to do it. I avoid going through the graphical clients. So are there any commands that can help me to connect through the wireless network. Any help regarding this is appreciated. Thank you for your help.

Hello,
Even I wanted to do this, I followed a few commands and it worked for me.
This is what I did
I change my MAC address which is a authorized:

Code:

---

ifconfig wlan0 hw ether XX: XX: XX: XX: XX: XX

---

I set my card on the desired :

Code:

---

iwconfig ath0 ap XX: XX: XX: XX: XX: XX

---

The key is set to

Code:

---

iwconfig ath0 key 1a2b3c4d5e

---

And I run the application as

Code:

---

dhclient ath0

---

Hello,
You can use this command

Code:

---

# / Bin / sh modprobe-r pcspkr AirDrives kmix-ng reload iwconfig wlan1 channel ......

---

You will get a long result when you will fire the command in the terminal. I use this to autostart but there is no mac filtering, post if you have an ip assigned with wireless assistant I can see why you would have no one in client side.

Hello,
It does not work. Not dhcpcd completes without error code after an eternity, and do not ath0 assigned IP. I just recheck the association: it works impeccable. If you worry for the MAC is a atheros madwifi so with AC drives.
This is what I tried in the command line

Code:

---

bt ~ # aireplay-ng - fakeauth was 0-8B: 86: B7: 1D: A1: D0 ATH1 No source MAC (-h) sp

---

Any more help regarding this is appreciated. Thanks for your reply.

Hello,
You can try the following command

Code:

---

# / Bin / sh modprobe-r pcspkr AirDrives kmix-ng reload iwconfig wlan1 channel .........

---

You will surely get a long list of details of your wireless network card and your computer network configuration.
And for key you can do this

Code:

---

ifconfig wlan1 down; iwconfig wlan1 mode managed; ifconfig wlan1 iwconfig ..........

---

Again you will get a long list of information about the network configuration. See if this works else post back with the error you are getting.

Hey,
Thank you for the reply but unfortunately, I do not want to use the router. Basically if I make a pattern I want works commme this without buying additional equipment.

Schematic:
PCn 1 network card 1: ------------- 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.0.x network
PCn 1 network card 2: ------------- 20.0.0.1 to 20.0.0.x network

as stated above, on my pc I have two network card so I want to make a bridge network. what is possible, because my cards are not on the same sub network?

Hello,
See if you can configure this file
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant.conf

Code:

---

network={
        ssid="epfl"
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        proto=WPA2
        eap=TTLS
        identity="domain name"
        password="smpass"
        anonymous_identity="domain name with wireless network"
        phase2="auth=PAP"
        ca_cert="/etc/ssl/certs/name of the file.pem"
        subject_match="domain name"
        priority=8
}

It's just more complicated, but must first install wpa_supplicant. If only the wireless connection is possible and that the package is missing, mirror the approach proposed in the first step to get wpasupplicant and its dependencies sudo aptitude install wpasupplicant
is then corrected / etc / network / interfaces:

Code:

---

sudo nano / etc / network / interfaces

---

And it changes the section corresponding to the wireless card ( eth1 here):

Code:

---

auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp wpa-conf / etc / wpa_supplicant /
wpa_supplicant.conf

---

We save it and quit (ctrl x). We must now configure wpasupplicant:

Code:

---

sudo nano / etc / wpa_supplicant / wpa_supplicant.conf
