Topic: anyone get reaver to work on 703n?
I have a test router with wps, and earlier I somehow got reaver to start attacking on my router. I am not
sure if I had wlan0 up or down when I did it. I stopped the attack to install screen so I don't need to have
my laptop attached.
Was anyone else able to get reaver to work? If so, what setup did you have?
edit; appearently i got it to work, how I did it was
reaver -i mon0 -c channel number -b mac addy -vv
thing is i have to put channel number before the mac addy and i took wlan0 down too. (which I am not
sure if that made a difference)

Re: anyone get reaver to work on 703n?
I've got it working on WDR4900. Its a bit tricky, in fact.
At first we need to start airmon-ng to enable monitor mode at wlan0:
# airmon-ng start wlan0

Then I had to make wlan0 down to make mon0 working, by some reason it wasn't if wlan0 was up.
# ifconfig wlan0 down

After that things got differ if your router uses Little or Big Endianness. If you have LE device, then you
could start directly:
reaver -i mon0 -b <AP's MAC> -v

And just wait until it completes (or fails).

Most routers are BE, unfortunately. For them more mess is required because reaver has some code broken
for BE and cant associate with AP itself, so it needs to use other external utility for association:
# iwconfig mon0 channel <AP's channel>
# aireplay-ng -1 5 -a <AP's MAC> mon0 > /dev/null &
# reaver -i mon0 -b <AP's MAC> -vv -A

Seems like you've already made it to work while i wrote this message, but I'll post it anyway, it might be
useful for someone else one day.

Re: anyone get reaver to work on 703n?
Hi Eximido,
I'm still not able to get it work on my Buffalo 450GH (Big Endian). It keeps getting no response from the
AP. I wonder what the part "-1 5" in this command does: "aireplay-ng -1 5 -a <AP's MAC> mon0 >
/dev/null &". Could you please help explain?
All I get now is like this:
