Nov 11, 2019 To assist administrators in creating correct WEP keys, some brands of wireless network equipment automatically generate WEP keys from regular text (sometimes called a passphrase). Additionally, some public web sites offer automatic WEP key generators that generate random key values that are difficult for outsiders to guess.
Because the WEP key 2 is selected as the transmit key, WEP key 2 on the client device must contain the same contents. WEP key 4 on the client device is set, but because it is not selected as the transmit key, WEP key 4 on the access point/bridge does not need to be set at all.

Hot Wi Fi Links!
Wi-Fi is short for wireless fidelity -- used generically when referring of any type of 802.11 network, including 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g. It is a trade term promulgated by the Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance (WECA). 'Wi-Fi' is used in place of 802.11 in the same way that 'Ethernet' is used in place of IEEE 802.3. Products certified as Wi-Fi by WECA are interoperable with each other even if they are from different manufacturers. A user with a Wi-Fi product can use any brand of Access Point (AP) with any other brand of client hardware that is built to the Wi-Fi standard.

NetStumbler for freeware wireless access point identifier - listens for SSIDs and sends beacons as probes searching for access points.
Kismet for freeware wireless sniffer and monitor - passively monitors wireless traffic and sorts data to identify SSIDs, MAC addresses, channels and connection speeds.
Wellenreiter for freeware WLAN discovery tool - uses brute force to identify low traffic access points; hides your real MAC address; integrates with GPS.
THC-RUT for freeware WLAN discovery tool - uses brute force to identify low traffic access points. 'Your first knife on a foreign network.'
Ethereal for freeware WLAN analyzer - interactively browse the capture data, viewing summary and detail information for all observed wireless traffic.
AirSnort for freeware encryption breaker - passively monitoring transmissions, computing the encryption key when enough packets have been gathered.
HostAP for conversion of a WLAN station to function as an access point. (Available for WLAN cards based on Intersil's Prism2/2.5/3 chip set)
WEPWedgie for toolkit that determines 802.11 WEP keystreams and injects traffic with known keystreams in order to crack WEP in minutes.
AirSnarf for soft AP setup utility that steals user names and passwords from public wireless hotspots by confusing users with DNS and HTTP redirects from a competing AP.

What good is a fancy new wireless encryption and authentication system (wpa-psk)if you use an easy-to-guess passphrase?
Answer: Not very good. WPA, as part of the initial implementation of 802.11i, includesa host of new features designed to patch the gaping holes in the previous wireless encryption and authentication protocol, WEP. Wpa-psk, the less secure version of WPA for those of us who do not have a PEAP authentication server, relies upon a common pre-shared key ('psk' - get it??) to initialize the communication.
Unfortunately, a clever hacker can trick your wireless basestation into revealingthe initial handshake between your basestation and wireless clients, and then run abrute-force/dictionary attack on the handshake to recover the pre-shared key. Even worse, theattack can be done offline at a high rate of speed.

The upshot: While wpa-psk will keep out casual wardrivers, a determined intruder, givenenough time, can always hack into your network. If you use a poor passphrase (like, oh, 'passphrase'), a dictionary attack could render your wpa-psk useless in 30 seconds. Your goal,then, is to use a sufficiently strong password that would require an intruder to spend years(given today's computing power) to brute-force your passphrase. And, frankly, if you have data thatpeople would spend years trying to obtain, then perhaps you should look elsewhere for somestronger security.
In the meantime, there are websites devoted to telling you how to generate random keys athome, as well as some sites that generate various WEP keys for you. This page will generatea wpa-psk of whatever size you like, safely and securely. (Plus you don't have to roll a diea couple hundred times.)

This page uses the javascript functions built into your web browser to generate a random password for you. If you want to see the code for yourself, find your browser's'view-source' menu item.
Importantly, using javascript, all of the computational work for key generation takes place on your own computer. No-one but you knows what random key you got. It is not sent across the internet and there is no way for me (or anyone else) to record your key.
Compare a few other sites on the internet, wherethe actual key generation takes place on their webserver and they transmit the keyto you (hopefully over a secure connection). If you use one of these services, your keyis only as secure as your trust for their webservers.
Note: The code for key generation is based upon that distributed freely by the kindfolks at WarewolfLabs.
