Hello everyone, i've been learning about backtrack for a while and i already can do some things with it.
Well today I was talking with a Cousin which is also a backtrack lover just like me and while i was talking to him and cracking a wep network (open system) and with a client connected, which i created just to make a tutorial, i was talking to him that it takes some time to get an arp request. Well then i got an idea. What if i try to deauth a non existent client like "aireplay-ng -0 10 -a 12:3A:5D:64:33:AB -c 00:11:22:33:44:55 mon0". The mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 is not used by the connected client. Well once the deauth packets arrive to the AP and it will forward those packets to the "owner" of that MAC since the Router doesnt know who has that MAC it will send an ARP request to get the info about who have got that MAC. Am I right? I tried it and it worked, does anyone do this or ever tried it? I wanna see if it was luck. I don't really think so since i got some ARP request every time i tried it.
Who ever could try that reply here the result please.
Thanks a lot.
