| Network (in)Security Interesting hacks and cracks. Info on firewalls, TCP/IP, encryption, networks, and security. The ins and outs of the phone system, caller services, how things work, what's illegal and what's not, cellular phones, beepers, telephony legislation, the PUC, ISDN, taps, who's listening, and switches. Talking about phones, hacking systems, technical advice, and such is completely LEGAL in the United States -- it's covered by the First Amendment. What's illegal is conspiracy to commit a crime. So if you say something like "Meet me at 2am so we can crack a can" or "I changed my cell phone's number myself" you are criminally liable. Stating "You can crack a can by doing thus-and-so" or "If you wanted to change a cell phone's number, you could do it like so" is perfectly OK. Posting passwords, calling card numbers, or credit card numbers is forbidden on this network. Posting such info will get you booted off the net. |

ok I understand how it works and what they do to make it happen but what I dont understand is do you need to crack the encryption(WPA WPA2 WEP etc.) to do it?

Re: wifi man in the middle attack
You need to be connected to the network to execute a MITM attack.
/\
ROUTER ---- YOU --- TARGET
If you are not connected, then you cannot send/receive packets to/from the router, so the attack would not work.

Re: wifi man in the middle attack
Optionaly you could also crack the router's login and change the dns server to run you run, then you'd have a permenant medium for mitms.
