Fastest way to Crack WPA password: 2017 Guide

Do you think Hacking WPA password is not possible because it uses wordlist or brute force attack then

Let me tell you that you are wrong.You can’t hack a WPA  within 2-4 hours but you can crack it (if your victim use a numerical and which is made of 8 digits then It can be cracked within 11 hours from one Computer).

Hacking is not magic it is an art.

ok, No more words.

Note:I’m assuming that you know how to capture WPA handshake ( if you don’t know how to capture WPA handshake then this article is useless for  you

After you capture wpa handshake you can understand what is this post all about.

Hacking for beginners: step by step guide

Method to crack wpa  password Fast

Using Hashcat

Hashcat is faster than aircrack-ng. In this you need to convert your cap file to hccapx using the official hashcat website then you can start cracking process. The main benefit of using hashcat you can start password cracking again from where you left not from beginning.

How to use it:

  • First of visit https://hashcat.net/cap2hccapx/ this is official website hashcat it will convert your cap file to hccapx which is supported format to use in hashcat.hashcat website
  • Upload your file and click on convert it will convert cap to hccapx within seconds save it where you want I am going to save it in /root/ directory.

uploading file to hashcat websiteopen terminal and navigate to that direcotry using cd command if required but in case it isn’t.Type the following command

hashcat -m 2500 -a 3 opentechinfo.hccapx ?d?d?d?d?d?d

hashcat: it will launch hashcat (LOL)

-m 2500: m 2500 mean I want to crack wpa password

-a 3: a stand for attacking mode and 3 mean I want to apply brute force attack

?: stand for vairable

d: tells the machine only digital

So

?d tells brute force attack with length of 8 numbers

If you know some character of password then you can include these in the password e.x. I know  that starting numberic character is  1 SO

1?d?d?d?d?d?d?d I have type ?d only for 7 times because first chrackter is 1 other will be brute forced by hashcat

Here is syntext for other characters.

charset

As you can see for using lower alphabatic  Use ?l which lenngth should be equal to password ( your have to guess it  generally password length is 8)

Note: you can Use dictionary file  too. Just replace ?d..?d with your dictionary file  e.x.

hashcat -m 2500 -a 3 opentechinfo.hccapx password.txt

Pressing Enter will show something like this
Screenshot of hashcat start the cracking process
Press s enter to see the updated status or pass –status argument when you start this process. To stop this press q and To start process from where you left type this command.

hashcat –restore

It will start your process from where  you left.

One thing that I like about hashcat it show you time to complete the attack.

Using oclhashcat

This is an advanced version of hashcat and fastest brute force attacking tool in the world. It is based upon GPU mean it needs graphic card. If you have nivida  or amd graphic card then you can use it. (Pre-installed in hacking OS). you Can install it in windows too. Just replace hashcat with oclhashcat other syntax is same.

By multiple Machine

If you have more than one Pc then you can start cracking process using all computers. you can use your friend computer. Don’t forget to apply different password syntex for another computer.Multiple computer to crack password

  1. you can us crunch to generate your list, but it would be huge. I currently generated a 15 TB list of every character listed here. the list generated contains passwords from 8-24 characters long, containing: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890`~-_=+[{]}\|;:'”,/? took my (lenovo flex 5) quad core i7 cpu (no gpu) laptop about 8 days to make the list…. patience is the key to getting the key

  2. Let’s say you have a handshake and you tried a couple password files and no luck so far. now my question is

    1. Does it matter if the wordlist is in upper or lower case? Does the handshake really care of the upper or lower case in the file?

    2. Now if the password file doesn’t work would it better to try the ?l?l?l command better but that will take a while correct?

    Just trying to figure out a couple things.
    Thanks

  3. Well… If i have to bruteforce a password with a length that can varies from 8 to 12 characters, including special ones, it would be nice to buy a super computer with a cluster of video cards. And yet with this processing power, it can take many years to crack a password.
