Guys you must know everything that's why i am explaining ch and everything in this tutorials related to wireless networks or wifi . Its a complete wireless network tutorial with all toolsand how to use them. Using these you will came to know how to wifi or wireless networks and note guys this tutorial is 110% working like other one's.Note: This article is only for Eduional Purposes so that you can understand the loopholes in wireless networks and fix them. Any misuse can result in disastrous consequences like cyber crime.
Don't worry everything is ethical till you misuses it. So always try to be ethical as far as possible. Lets start from the first topic...
1. WIRELESS SCANNING TOOLSScanning tools is needed to scan the wifi or wireless networks around you. First of all we need to scan all the wireless networks so that we can select the wireless network to . There are several wireless scanning tools but my favorite is NET STUMBLER. And for Mac operating systems is MacStumbler.There are several Wireless scanning tools, a list of all wireless scanning tools is given below:a. NetStumbler for operating systems.NetStumbler (also known as Network Stumbler) is a tool for that facilitates detection of Wireless LANs using the 802.11b, 802.11a and 802.11g WLAN standards. It runs on 98 and above. A trimmed-down version called MiniStumbler is available for CE.
NetStumbler is commonly used for:WardrivingVerifying network configurationsFinding loions with poor coverage in one’s WLANDetecting causes of wireless interferenceDetecting unauthorized (”rogue”) access pointsAiming directional antennas for long-haul WLAN linksDOWNLOAD:http://www.netstumbler.com/downloads/

b. MacStumbler for Mac operating systems.MacStumbler is a small utility to emulate the functionality of projects like netstumbler, bsd-airtools, and kismet. It's mnt purely for eduional or auditing purposes, although many people enjoy using these types of programs to check out how many WiFi (wireless) networks are in their ar, usually known as "war driving".MacStumbler only works with AirPort wireless cards, it does not (yet) work with any PCMCIA or USB wireless devices.

c. Kismet for and Linux.Kismet identifies networks by passively collecting packets and detecting standard named networks, detecting (and given time, decloaking) hidden networks, and infering the presence of nonbconing networks via data traffic. Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, andintrusion detection system. Kismet will work with anywireless cardwhich supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and (with appropriate hardware) can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, and 802.11n traffic. Kismet also supports plugins which allow sniffing other media such as DECT.

e. THC-WarDriveTHC-WarDrive is a tool for mapping your city for wavelan networks with aGPS devicewhile you are driving a car or walking through the streets. THC-WarDrive is effective and flexible, a "must-download" for all wavelan nerds.DOWNLOAD:http://linux.eeker.com/System/thc-wardrive-2.3.zip/334584f. PrismStumblerPrismstumbler is software which finds 802.11 (WLAN) networks. It comes with an sy to use GTK2 frontend and is small enough to fit on a small portable system. It is designed to be a flexible tool to find as much information aboutwireless LANinstallations as possible. Because of its client-server architecture thescannerengine may be used for different frontends.

h. WaveStumblerWaveStumbler is console based 802.11 network mapper for Linux. It reports the basic AP stuff like channel, WEP, ESSID, MAC etc. It has support for Hermes based cards (, Lucent/Agere, … ) It still in development but tends to be stable. It consist of a against the kernel driver, orinoco.c which makes it possible to send the scan command to the driver viathe /proc/hermes/ethX/cmds file. The answer is then sent back via a netlink socket. WaveStumbler listens to this socket and displays the output data on the console.
