So I captured around 30,000 ivs from a AP that i know uses 64bit wep. When i run aircrak-ptw cap-01.ivs, the first 2 lines are the standard aircrack-ptw info and the visit our site line, but then i get an error, cannot open file. Anyone know why this is.

how to i make airodump-ng save as .cap? do i have to do
> airodump-ng -w cap.cap ath1?

because i think that when i was capping packets last time i just did cap and left out the .cap part

thanks for the info

hey there again, here is what i use for airodump:

airodump-ng -w abc -c 001 wlan0

so that gives me a abc-01.cap file ect

You probably used the -i (--ivs) flag, which saves only captured IVs as opposed to everything else.

now that i think of it. I probably did

airodump-ng -w cap -i ath0

because i forgot that airodump doesnt use -i to identify the interface :P
