Simple check for proper injection

[kirbyfree]

i get a "No such BSSID available.
Please specify an ESSID (-e)"
why???

when i start it, it says:
"Waiting for becon frame (BSSID: 01:02:03:04:05:06) on channel 10"

What can I do when theres nothing showing up after doing the aireplay thing?

Do i just have to forget about it all, or is there still sth that i can do?

I have the same problem as kirbyfree.

bt ~ # aireplay-ng -0 10 -a 01:02:03:04:05:06 wifi0
Waiting for beacon frame (BSSID: 01:02:03:04:05:06) on channel 13
No such BSSID available.
Please specify an ESSID (-e).

wifi0 is my device, this is what i get when i do an iwconfig

wifi0 unassociated ESSID: off/any
Mode:Monitor Channel=13 Bit Rate=1 Mb/s

I guess my question is, what are you supposed to see when you do an aireplay-ng command? As far as I know, this command sends death packets to a non-existent mac address, so the response it gives makes sense, but it doesn't seem like the command does anything, so I must have something wrong.

As no AP with the specified MAC address is found aireplay-ng will not inject anything. Therefore it, as you say, does nothing. Use the MAC address of your own WEP encrypted AP instead and you should start to see some results.
