some of you know i am well into my hacking, only to protect my self from others and my neighbours, hacked all of there to make them secure which i tell them about face to face that i am going to do it.they are happy with it as they know they will be secure. then add funny passwords (dont tell them face to face about them thats normal done with a bit of paper through the letter box so i dont get lintched )
as every one has wifi now days it has been at the heart of hackers and they have done it again, you can download a program (i wont name which 1 google is good for that) that will now hack your passwords in less then 10 hours this may seem like a long time but left over night to run, why you and they sleep and when they wake up they have access to all your detals ie online bank detials and all passwords via your router. WEP security has been broken for years now that why all new router come with WPA/WPA2 security as this hadnt been broken yet, but it has to a certain extent. it only affects if you have a key access on your router to make paring up easer this is made you of 8 numbers,it dosnt afect it you only have a passphrase ie numbers or leters or a mixture.(this can be broken but can take years and i mean years)
it only afects about 20% of routers but its worth checking just to make sure.
if you look on the back of your router and it saids passphrase and underneath passkey you can be hacked very quickley.
if you have this and the first number is a 1xxxxxxx then it will take about 1hr if your numbers starts with a 2xxxxxxx it will take about 2hrs and so on.
if all you have is passphrase they you are ok (to a circtain extent, if some 1 want to try for years let them probley by the time they get your password you would of ither moved or had a new router)
you can disable this by loging into your router,to do this on the back of your router there is a web adress ie 192.168.1.1 enter the adress into your brouser ie internet explora then log in with user name and password which is located on the back of the route and normaly in adv settings there is a tick box saying 'brodcast wps pin' untick this box and you will be safe (on most routers anyway)you may need to enter in your passphrase again into your phones/ laptops
please check this has only been out for a couple of months now and i dont want any1 on here getting done by some 1
if you have any issues let me know and i will try and help or if you want to test your own security and need help let me know and i will help
