After starting Fern WIFI Cracker 2.2 I select Wlan0, messages appears 'Monitor Mode Enabled on wlan0mon', Scan is 'Active' but it doesn't find any WEP or WPA networks. Checking with ifconfig wlan0mon is up, also some month ago with an older version, it found a lot of Wifis in my area, I was easily. How to hack wifi Password using Fern WiFi Cracker. First of all you need to install Kali Linux either in Virtual Box or as a main operating system. Alternatively you can use Kali Linux Live. Step 1: First of all go to applications in Kali Linux. Step 2: Select Wireless Attacks. Step 3: Select Fern WiFi Cracker. Step 3 (wifi hack). WiFi or wireless penetration testing is an important aspect of any security audit project, organizations are facing serious threats from their insecure WiFi network. A compromised wifi puts the entire network at risks. Consider the recent darkhotel attack, where the top business executives were the target and the attacker were targeting them by hacking into. Fern Wifi Cracker is a Wireless security auditing and attack software program written using the Python Programming Language and the Python Qt GUI library, the program is able to crack and recover WEP/WPA/WPS keys and also run other network based attacks on wireless or ethernet based networks.

| Fern-Wifi-Cracker 2.0 Not working with Ralink Chipsets (tested on AWUS036NH ) |
| What steps will reproduce the problem? |
| 1.start fern-wifi |
| 2.select interface |
| What is the expected output? What do you see instead? |
| expected output: 'Monitor mode enabled on wlan0mon' |
| instead: stuck in set_monitor_thread() |
| What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? |

Hello, I use Kali Linux in VMware Fusion (Mac OS X). When i choose the wlan0 (AWUSO36NH) on fern-wifi, a problem appears ... I'm trying to attack and WPA access. So i think Fern-Wifi Cracker doesn't work well with AWUS036NH. Sorry for my poor english. |
Fern Wifi Cracker is a Wireless security auditing and attack software program written using the Python Programming Language and the Python Qt GUI library, the program is able to crack and recover WEP/WPA/WPS keys and also run other network based attacks on wireless or ethernet based networks.
The Software runs on any Linux machine with prerequisites installed, and it has been tested on Ubuntu KDE/Gnome, BackTrack Linux and BackBox Linux.

Fern currently supports:
- WEP Cracking with Fragmentation,Chop-Chop, Caffe-Latte, Hirte, ARP Request Replay or WPS attack
- WPA/WPA2 Cracking with Dictionary or WPS based attacks
- Automatic saving of key in database on successful crack
- Automatic Access Point Attack System
- Session Hijacking (Passive and Ethernet Modes)
- Access Point MAC Address Geo Location Tracking
- Internal MITM Engine
- Bruteforce Attacks (HTTP,HTTPS,TELNET,FTP)
- Update Support
