How to use NetStumbler for Scanning Wireless Networks?1. Download the NetStumbler andInstallit.
2. Run the NetStumbler. Then it will automatically starts scanning the wireless Networks around you.
3. Once its completed, you will see the complete list of wireless networks around you as shown in thesnapshotbelow:
List of Wireless Networks Scanned by NetStumblerThere you will see different columns such as MAC, SSID, SPEED, VENDOR, TYPE and much more...
4. Now select anyone of theMAC addressthat you wish to and want to explore more about that. If you click on the MAC address of one of the discovered wireless networks under channels, you will see a graph that shows thewireless network’s signal strength. The more green and the less spaces are there,it indies better is signal strength.
5. As you can see NetStumbler provides a lot more than just the name (SSID) of the wireless network. It provides the MAC address,Channel,encryptiontype, and a bunch more. All of these come in use when we decides that we wants to get in the secured network by the encryption.
There are two most common types of Encryption Methods used by Wireless Networks:a.WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)– WEP isn’t considered safe anymore. Many flaws have been discovered that allow s to a WEP sily. I will explain how to the WEP in next tutorial so guys keep rding..b.WAP (Wireless Appliion Protocol)– WAP is the currently the most secure and best option to secure your wireless network. It’s not as sily as WEP because the only way to retrieve a WAP is
to use a brute-force or dictionary attack. If your is secure enough, a dictionary attack won’t work and it could take decades to it if you brute-force it. This is why most s don’t even bother. But I will explain you smarter ways to WAP also rather than these noobish methods. I will explain this in my next consecutive tutorials. So guys keep visiting.
Thats all about scanning the wireless networks, if you want that i should explain the other tools then plse post in comments. I can explain them in futureon demand.Now how can protect our wireless network from scanned by NetStumber.
How to Protect yourself from NetStumbler?1. Don notbroadcastyour SSID.2. Always try to use stronger s like atlst one digit, one special character, uppercase letters mixed with lowercase letters.3. But second point doesn't matter much so try to use better encryption method i.e. WAP to protect your wireless Network.
So guys that's all for today , I hope you all have liked it. So keep visiting to know more about .
