Kismac on a Macbook
So today I decided I wanted to actually sit down and figure out why I can’t use Kismac on my MacBook like how it could be used on the previous generation. The answer was simple: new chip-set = new drivers ergo no go on passive mode.
So after snooping around Kismac’s website I found a solution. Download the development code and compile it. It’s pretty straight forward here is how to do it. (The text thats block format is inputted in terminal in one line…not separate lines.)
- Download and install subversion-client. I had installed subversion-client-1.3.1.dmg
- Download and install XCode. I had installed xcode_2.4.1_8m1910_6936315.dmg
- Launch terminal and enter the following:
-
/usr/local/bin/svn co https://svn.binaervarianz.de/kismac/trunk/ kismac-source
-
cd kismac-source
-
./compile.command
That’s it…now if you open Finder you’ll see a folder called kismac-source and inside you’ll find the newly built kismac.app that’ll work with your Macbook in passive mode.
Those of you that are still reading, I assume it’s because you are interested on what those three commands do in terminal. It’s pretty straight forward. The first one downloads the latests “source” to a folder called kismac-source at the home level. The second command in the terminal simply changes the path to the kismac-source directory, and finally the third command simply compiles the source.
Errors you might expect to see:
If you do not have svn client installed when you run the first command at the terminal it will say no such file or directory.
If you do not have xcode installed at compile time it will either refuse your command on permissions or it will tell you that the file doesn’t exist.
If you’ve been a good reader and have read all this then go ahead to my files…you’ll find an easier solution.
*UPDATE*
Thanks to Fish (from the comments) for posting up the new site where KisMAC lives on!
http://kismac-ng.com/ and http://kismac-ng.org/
Wow, does this really work? I thought it was down to the limitations in the chipset it’s self?
Works for me…. A friend of mine just purchased a Core 2 Duo MacBook and he got it to work as well. He tried the easier solution, and it was fine out of the box.
Will this work with the macbook pro?
I myself don’t have a MacBook Pro so I can’t test it out. You can give it a shot and see if it’ll work. I can’t see why it wouldn’t work, but you never know… Good luck.
Why I can’t select “primary device injection” when i select apple airport extreme passive mode. Cause after i can’t make deauthetification….? Please give me an answer quickly
Sorry my english is not good i’m french….
thank you !
inquiet,
need to be a little more specific…what device are you using? MacBook or MacBook Pro?
Hi, kismac-source isn’t avaible at the moment, can you help me
with what do you require assistance?
I was fallowing your directions until about half way in which I just dicided to read on. I noticed then that you have the program already for those who learned in school that you read the entire test before you fill out the answers. Anyway, I couldn’t get a hold of xcode so i just used your already made version. I however am confused. Maybe I’m missing something but when I open the new KisMac it had a new option for: apple airport, passive; but every time I try and use a feature (i.e. authentication flood) it says I have not picked a driver. So, I was just wondering if you have any thoughts.
Thanks
P.S. you rock for working on this shit.
I’m glad you read the entire thing, as anything I put up here can be solved by just understanding (to some degree) what one is actually doing rather than just working like a drone…step 1…step 2….etc…
Okay first off after you download the file and unzip it I hope you install KisMAC on your Macbook. This is done by dragging and dropping the KisMAC.app application into the Applications folder in Finder. Now once KisMAC is installed launch KisMAC from the applications folder and go to preferences (command + comma). Click on the Driver menu and select the your appropriate driver (in my case it was the Apple Airport Extreme card, passive mode) and then click add. Once you see the correct card in the “capture device” field close the KisMAC preferences box and audit/scan your network until your hearts content.
Well first off, you are one prompt mother fucker. Second in looking at my last post i realize i was unclear. What i am trying to say is that i pick the new option (i.e.apple airport, passive) in the preferences and i select all channels and what not, but i when i try and do preform a funtion such as Authentication Flood it gives me an error: could not instantiate driver. This is the same error i got when i tryed to use the …….
Wait.. im a fuckin idiot. i just realized i was picking the wrong airport card. Ok,,, now that i have picked the right one the problem is that when i pick authentication flood it tells me: no injection driver. But my understanding is that with this new kismac i would still be able to inject. Now there could be two problems i realize: One something is not working or two i have no fucking idea what im doing or how you use injecting. I regret that i need put you in the place of socrates to meno and that you need explain every step. O.. and what time is it where you are from because im goin to bed.
well i’m on the pacific coast (California). As to your query of packet injection…well the apple extreme card won’t do it. I assume since you’re asking about packet injection you know how it works so I won’t go into the details of that, but if you come across prismII card you’ll be able to do exactly what you want to do.
Here’s KisMAC’s wiki site that has a list of their configs…perhaps you’ll be able to pickup one of the wifi cards cheap on ebay.
http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/Our%20Hardware
sweet, thanks. I’ll definitly be checking back in with your site; you were plentifly helpful.
Hey, I have a Macbook right now and currently downloading xcode. I was just wondering what the terminal is.
terminal is the shell. you can access the terminal by launching finder and going to applications—>utilities. and i hope you read the instructions before jumping into this.
haha.. i read it.. i’m having the same problem as erik. i just want to able to use packet injections but I guess I can’t. Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I’ve successfully build the latest KisMac. I’ve got a Macbook non-pro Core2Duo. When I select the passive airport driver, though, I can’t tick the “Injection” option as it says “Injection not supported”…
thanks in advance…
chell
Read my comment about 5 comments above yours.
So there is no way I can do packet injection with my macbook other than buying a WLAN card/dongle/whatever?
no not that I’m aware of as the MacBook hardware doesn’t support it.
Damn….
but anyways… I looked on the website you gave me the link to. It only lists very old WLAN devices that can do packet detection. Do you know of any solution that supports 54mbit WLAN AND packet injection?
Thanks,
chell
More than likely a PrismII chipset will work. But I must ask do you know what packet injection is? I suggest you Google up some information on it so you have a better idea of what you’re actually doing.
Hey again, I could run Kismac very well now and I can start scanning and collecting packets. But I am having trouble collecting the unique IV’s and any data packets. I just receive a lot of regular packets. Is there a way I can fix this? Thanks.
how do you know for sure you’re only receiving regular packets? If you’re not using packet injection you’ll need anywhere between 250,000 to 1,000,000 packets to decipher you wifi key.
Well, I currently have around 800,000 packets that I received to decipher my key but when I try to crack it, it tells me that I don’t have enough packets and I should collect more.
the kismac-source is not available
where to get it?
Hi there
I followed all the instructions correctly and everything got installed correctly, but I still don’t have full functionnality on kismac… (deauthentification, authentification flood, packets reinjection, etc…)
I have a MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo working under MacOS X 10.4.8
Thanks for helping.
@ Steve – Please read the entire post.
@ wykazox – Please read my comment 9 above yours.
Thanks for your instructions and your files, they just work fine. As I have a macbook pro but i don’t’ have a prismll card (runned out of money for the mac…) can I still crack in some way a wep key??
Thanks in advance
Hello
Currently sitting in my car in the middle of a canadian town reading this!
The problem is that i have no possebility to download the 900 mb big xcode.
In wondering i any one of you could email me the kismac-source folder?
user@localhost
plz Jakob
Jakob,
Did you read the entire post? Please do so…
And if you’re going to come back with the question of packet injection please read the comments…
Happy New Year!
Can you explane me how to install the universal usb-driver for kismac so that I can use a dwl g122 usb??
Thanks
thx lvlolvlo!
worked like a charm!
Hey
Ok I should have read to the END….I installed XCode, subversion and ran the Terminal
1- Can I delete the “kismac-source” folder in the finder after I get the new application out of there?
2- HOW do I UNINSTALL Xcode and Subversion?
The XCode has ain uninstall dev tools script but how do I run it?
XCode took up alot of drive space so I need it removed.
may thanks
A
OK I found out how to unistall Subversion on a discussion board, below incase anyone needs it, and Xcode from the pdf file….removed the $ from the beginning of the command and it worked in Terminal this time.
Only problem now is I have like literally 8 GIGS LESS space on my computer ater I installing and uninstalling Xcode, went from about 29 gigs before install of both apps, now I’m at about 21.7 gigs…
What happened to all that drive space????
That’s a MAJOR BUMMER just to get Kismac on my Macbook…and I can’t even inject packets still so I STILL can’t get passwords….
Installed everything for nothing..I still need to get a card.
The APP being finished as a FILE should have been listed at the TOP of the explination…what was the POINT putting it on the bottom exactly and making people waste time compiling it before the get to see at the last step that it’s ALREADY DONE.
Has nothing to do with being a ROBOT, it’s jsut COMMON Courtesy so state at the BEGINNING “you can DOWNLOAD it here, OR do it your self as follows”
As a result, I have 8 gigs of stuff I can’t find on my hard drive after installing everythiong, so any help on where my 8 gigs went would be appreciated.
PS
to uninsall subversion:

Anthony,
If you want to inject packets then you can go buy a PRISM2 based USB adapter. Second if you’re telling me that reading a few lines of text is too strenuous for you well then using KisMac is not for you. With that being said, the files that are taking up your hard disk space are either temp files which you can Google to figure out how to clean up, or just the dump from the subversion when you downloaded the files.
[...] card in macbooks. If you’ve read this far I’m assuming your’re interested… here it is. [...]
[...] card in macbooks. If you’ve read this far I’m assuming your’re interested… here it is. [...]

Wow, very impressive. Have read your post and all the comments but have not yet installed the software you generously provided. I worry alot. If this isn’t working as planned, is uninstallation of anything going to be needed? And if so, how? Just want to make sure I can restore things to the way they were if anything goes wrong. Thoughts?
Well it just really depends on what software you’re speaking of.
I meant the “easier solution” approach. If I start the app, is it going to add files to system folders that might need to be removed? Or would I just need to quit the app and restart?
(The Kismac site says to use their uninstaller (part of the installation package) to uninstall. Just wondering if I should use that or if your installer has an uninstaller. They also have a list of files that one could remove manually, I suppose. Is your list the same or are there additional files that would need to be removed? Just wondering.
All the easier solution is is an executable file type. I’m not “hip” on the Mac speak, but I hope you get the idea… it’s standalone runnable file.
Has anyone really gotten this to work? Have been running it for HOURS on a Macbook and it keeps saying not enough packets. I’m not doing packet injection (I don’t even know exactly packet injection is — only that I can’t do it on a MacBook with Airport Extreme.) Any thoughts on what next? Would be very intertested in success reports and how much data you had to collect before it worked.
Also, would Aircrack work better with the data collected than Kismac? Not sure that I even know how to use it, but I have read elsewhere that it can work with Kismac dump files. Anyone done that? Practical guidance or suggestions would be helpful.
Otis,
Packet Injection is exactly as it says… Using a packet injection method you would be able to more quickly decipher your security key. Since you can’t inject packets to decipher (driver support issues) you simply gather the packets and then try to brute force it. Now it’s not that you have 100,000 or 1,000,000 or 1,000,000,000 packets, it’s that you need something called IVs or rather “interesting packets” which contain the elements of what you’ll be brute forcing to decipher your key.
So in all honesty, you can spend hours, days, months, years, but if you don’t have the right kind of packets you won’t be able to decipher anything.
Thanks for that clarification. Well, I let it run for around 8 hours, which resulted in around 2311 packets for one particular network, but zero unique IVs, and zero injection packets. I’m getting that for every network I scan. Maybe I ran it at the wrong time of day, but still, that’s pretty bad, no?
Also, I don’t understand how it can do a word list crack as I don’t recall installing a word list as part of this application.
Any suggestions on how to make this work? Would be interested in any guidance from other MacBook owners on what they did to make it work on their machines.
In the absence of additional comments from anyone who has made it work, I’m assuming that either a) no one reads this site or b) this fix doesn’t really work. As far as I can tell, it gets MacBooks to run Kismac in passive mode, but doesn’t enable them to collect enough useful data to actually crack anything. In other words, not the best use of your time. I would love to be corrected on this, but I’m not holding my breath.
Otis you’re absolutely correct.
A. No one reads this site. Everyone just leeches… I have far more MB transferred than people actually idling on the site reading. Ergo my assumption people run a search come across here download the file and fly off. I don’t mind so long as they’re getting what they need done.
B. This fix is not a fix. It’s just a recompiling of KisMac on a MacBook so it can be used in passive mode. It’s not a fix to the driver which will allow the AirPort card inject packets. If you want to be able to inject packets and use KisMac properly, then I suggest you buy a prism based USB wifi adapter and use it with the compiled binary I have provided like I have stated in the comments.
Now on a more serious note…when it comes to technology please don’t use the expression of “holding one’s breath”….it’s so blah!
at least take the time to put a space between them so the evil faces show up properly….. jeez!
hey i just installed your version (the easy way) on a macbook but it s running well i m collecting packets and datas however i m not collecting IV ’s therefore can not get do any attack well succesfull attack can you explain me more about that ……
Well it’s fairly simple…. If you want the “IVs” then you need a prismII chipset based card (i.e. Linksys WUSB 11 or an Orinoco ). If you want to sit there and collect millions of packets and then brute them…well you can do that now.
Just wanted to say a quick thanks. Compiled and running, everything going well.
All this, is for macbook pro core2duo? Can I try it? or I lose time? because I am deprived of hope…….:cry:
hello guys,
ive just installed/compiled as the instructions gave me. didnt work…. whatever. now i want to get rid of that stuff. how do i uninstall subversion. did google but did nut find anything. also what about the folder kismac-source? just delete that?
thanks in advance!
ramsey
Why even bother removing subversion? its just a unix binary, hardly takes up any space and you’ll never see it!
I’m one of the many who just found out that their macbook non-pro isnt enough for packet injection. I have read the 58 comments on the site and didnt notice anyone asking about your hardware configuration and/or network card. Perhaps you could mention your specs because I would like to know how well a card works before i buy one. Also, I wanted to say that I appreciate the site that you have created and your willingness to help other mac users ‘find their way.’ I found this site to be very helpful.
Thanks
HI, just wanted to say that i’ve just finished installing it and its working like a dream… now i just need to find a prism based usb card on eBay!
After googling for quite a while, and not really getting very far, probably due to my complete ignorance, please could you recommend a usb wireless adaptor to use with my macbook so that i can use the full functuality of kismac? i.e packet injection etc…
Ps. i’d like to echo kadaves comment too!
Thanks for the kind words. For hardware recommendations have a gander here:
http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/Our%20Hardware
I have a Macbook Pro and I did a similar solution from another forum. It does not work in Passive mode which was also discussed in that forum. This means no packet reinjection or deauthentication…but I hope to comeback here in the near future and someone has solved it!!! =)
Cheers!
Hey lvlolvlo, great site, great work on compiling that for us noobs. I’ve gone through this site with a fine toothed comb (and others) and am now hunting out a prism2 compatible usb key for my MBP. I do scan and get packets but no IVs so I’m taking your advice and going to ebay.
I have a question that I think will arise in the future though…
When I’ve looked at screen shots, Kismac shows up the key as something that resembles a mac address. How do I convert this to a password to type in everytime I want to log on?
Cheers,
hrrm, each time i compile in terminal i get no app in the kismac-source directory… any ideas why this is?
thanks.
this is an amendment to the above comment,
i just tried to recompile once more and i got this for the first time, each of the other times its said, “Ok”
Building KisMAC main application… ** BUILD FAILED **
very nice! very very nice!
Hey thanks a lot for the info on recompiling the kismac app.
I actually just wanted to let you people now how much I regret it that I’ve thrown away my Linksys WUSB11 adaptor when I moved to my new appartement
…
due I tought it was old useless crap
dumb dumb dumb…
Another step-by-stop write-up:
http://screammy.name/projects/kismacmacbook/
So I tried both the self-compiling version and downloading your binary. Both give me the same error.
KisMAC was able to load the driver backend for Airport Extreme Card, but it was unable to create an interface. Make sure your capture device is properly plugged in. If you think everything is correct, you can try to restart your computer. Maybe your console.log and system.log show more details.
I have fiddled with everything I can think of and restarted many times to try to solve the problem. Running a Core 2 Duo OS 10.4.9 – any suggestions?
Well.
So far after reading this i have gathered the following:
1. This is a compilation that allows kisMAC to use the macbook airport card in PASSIVE mode.
2. It does not, however, support packet injection, and therefore neither authentication flood or deauthentication (right?).
3. To perform packet injection you need a prism II chipset network adapter.
4. There are currently no network cards for the macbook pro’s ExpressCard slot, or few anyway.
5. Am i right in saying that collecting unique IVs also does not work with the macbook’s airport card?
6. Fixing this issue of the airport card requires information about the airport card which only someone inside apple could give, and they’re not likely to. They’re also not likely to fix a problem with a network stumbler and spoofer (is that the right word?) themselves.
So it is really best to get a USB network adapter with a prism II chipset. Google it and you’ll probably find one.
Oh and if you’re really too retarded to find the file lvlolvlo kindly compiled for us, it’s here: http://www.lvlolvlo.net/my-files/ .
(It’s the bottom one what says Kismac-Macbook)
is there any way to use kismac finaly on a probook yet?
thx
am using the latest usb-branch build with dwl-g122 and I get packets but no data packets: no matter how many I collect, or which crack procedure I attempt I keep getting the “not enough data collected message” any hints? Thanks so much.
I have read all the comments and downloaded your version but it still shows this “driver for airport extreme hasn’t been found” please help me.
How can i load that
Download and install XCode. I had installed xcode_2.4.1_8m1910_6936315.dmg
It have to be member man can anyone send it to me
Guys
10.4.10 Breaks Kismac, The newer revisions are required.
I am unable to reliably download a 924mb Xcode file, is there any chance someone can recomplile the latest source tree for KisMAC off subversion and repost? if what Ben says is true. I personally am having trouble with all versions of kismac available on kismac.de or here. Whenever i try to load any sort of driver on my MacBook it says that it can not find my airport drivers and that it cant enable monitor mode.
I’m having a problem. I got the compiled app and I launch it ok. I go into the prefrences and try to load the airport extreme passive. It tells me I should use persistant something…so I turn it on. I reboot. I go back in and try to scan and it tells me it can’t load the driver.
I have a black macbook with 2.16 ghz and 2 gb ram. Any ides?
bob smith, this link almost work, but i can’t collect data packets http://tehbin.com/Bin/KisMAC/trunk/KisMAC%20trunk%20r239.zip
So i guess i’m a good reader ? i went to “my Files” and dl kismac-macbook does it work ? or do i need to dl XCODE and subversion to get it work …
First of all, thanks for this helpfull explanation!! Yet I still encounter problems.
I have a Macbook pro and a D-Link dwl-g122 dongle, dangling out of my window. With the USBWirelessUtility I actually get to see all available networks, the channels, the signal strength and such… But, even when I get one where authenication isn’t required and I get connected, I can’t seem to use it and really go online (no idea wether ports are being blocked or such). That’s my first problem.
So I checked for KisMac, built it following your step-by-step explanation and it now finds the Airport yet can’t use it as it should (the injection-thing). When I try to get my g122 to work, I select the USB with PrismII, but I get the error it’s not properly connected. That’s my second problem. I did install the R2500 stuff actually and I can get it to work with the USBWirelessUtility, but how can I get it to work with KisMac then?
Thanks!
Oh yeah, before I forget… I tried building from scratch, with the explanation on http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/BuildingFromSource. When I enter “svn co https://svn.binaervarianz.de/kismac/branches/usb-drivers kismac” in term, I get “svn: command not found”. No se que pasa, what am I doing wrong here?
Hi all. Before you buy any USB dongles, ensure they are what you think they are. Many manufacturers have been known to change their adapters’ firmware without notification. Also, I believe that the D-Link DWL-g122 is not supported, whereas the DWL-112 (b only) is… There is a hardware compatibility list on the KisMac site.
i cant get this thing to work im new to the whole new thing, im able to run kismac and as soon as i click on Authentication Fllod it says No Injection Driver and i have no clue on how to fix that
Any help???
Thanks for the help, worked great!
Note to others: The airport extreme card (on macbooks/pros) is only useful for seeing networks, not cracking them. Currently, it cannot receive data packets.
http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/Hardware%20List
Also, the driver doesn’t support “injection” of packets. This doesn’t really matter though, because it can’t receive data packets anyway.
Hope this helps others!
First thank you momo for being very generous with your files, but….
ive carefully read each post and I think only two people have the same problem I do…
“Could not enable Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Your airport extreme driver has not been found.”
Anyway the real point is even if I did get this up and running I cant collect the packets necessary to decrypt WEP. I did see on the Kismac website a changeset_r239.zip revision that was “for Intel-based Macs.” I wonder if that is the build that works (packet-injection, etc.). If anyone comes across a solution for Macbooks (blackbook specifically) please be kind enough to post it on here. THANKS
Here is a full list of hardware that works. many usb devices:
http://kismac.de/hardwarelist.php
Careful:
There seem to be severe problems with dlink dwl-122 and mac osx 10.4.x
this works perfectly. the only difficult part was obtaining a copy of xcode 2.4.1 which i was able to find on demonoid.com. thanks a million. (black macbook 2nd gen, 10.4.10, 2GB Ram)
As of yesterday, svn version of kismac works for my MBP 2.4Ghz. However, as said by DK, data packets stays 0 while injection gives me “no injection driver” error.
I have a MacBook (Intel) I did the compiling and all the instructions. I can Scan and get the Airport Extreme card to run in Passive mode. Now, the Data packets, IVs stay at 0, no matter how much time you let it run. If I do brute force it tells me that I have to gather more data, also i cannot deauthenticate. This message appears when I try to do a crack on a WPA encryption ” You have not collected enough data packets to perform this attack. Please capture some more traffic”
If anyone knows what to do so it would work please reply. Thank you
You f’ing Rock!
If you are getting a “KisMAC is not able to load the Apple Airport driver, if you killed it by loading the Viha driver. Try restarting KisMAC.” Error when U are trying to scan after patching from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10, there is a fix.
The KisMAC community has put the fixed code up on subversion. go to
http://www.ahjema.com/KisMAC.zip for new version
Using a Netgear ma111 v1 and working perfectly!
Hey….
So i’ve read the whole thing…
I can start up the Kismac, find netoworks ect…. but as everyone else with a Airport extreeme, not get the IV’s… soo i cant crack a network…
So as far as i understand, i need to buy a prismII chipset based card (i.e. Linksys WUSB 11) Right??
So these cards, do u just USB them into your mac???
I have a Macbook, and if i buy one of these, do i just connect it to my mac?
And then i can use it as injection drive???
Enableing me to use authentication flood ect, so i can get the IVs??
And then a last question will this device work, on my macbook (intel), and ofcause also with kismac…:
http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-WUSB11-Wireless-B-Network-Adapter/dp/B00005AW1H
Thanks Alot…
OK stupid me, it wont be mac compatible i guess, what else should one buy then??
Whats not expensive, but works?
Thnx again
Status: DWL-G122 B1 Passive mode WORKING!
Hardware: MBP 2.0GHZ Core Duo (not core 2). OS 10.4.10 / KisMac USB-Source compiled correctly.
If I let it collect enough Unique IVs, I can run brute force. I’m hoping this hardware (RALink based) will eventually support 802.11g injection.
For everyone asking about injection. You cant do it with extreme cards, the chipset is closed source.
Go on eBay and buy a USB wifi key I got DWL-122 and I can do injection with it (its a prism2 chipset)
basically, you need to have a wifi card compatible, there is a list on the main kismac website, but stick to a ralink or a prism2 chipset and your gold.
Are u using the DWL-122
On a mac??
With succes?? if il by one, i have a MacBook (Intel)
Help needed!!
I bought a belkin (f5d705d, 3001uk) USB wifi dongle today, i had an hard time getting my G4 powerbook to realize it was connected however it now does. But Kismac will not work with it, when i scan it says ‘Driver error occurred with your USB device, make sure it is properly connected. Scanning will be canceled. Errors may be printed to console.log.’
What am I doing wrong? I have noticed in the preferences driver panel it won’t let me select use as primary device its greyed out. I’m using OS x 10.3
any help greatly received.
This forum has been really helpful.
Tell me if I’ve got it. To summarize – there is now a version of Kismac that will allow passive scan with the Airport Extreme card on a MacBook. However you cannot do any injections or deauthorizations because of the way the card/chip is configured. But by purchasing a card with a Prism II chipset you would then be able to acheive the full functionality.
So now I really want a Prism II card. Can anyone recommend one to me to go with my MacBook running OS X 10.4.10 ? How much would it run? Are there some more reliable than others?
Hi ! Seems that the sources are not avaible anymore….
the svn command returned me an error. Does someone could put the sources on a ftp for a couple of days ? I need to compil it myself for a better driver input.
thanks.
does this work on i-mac version 10.4.10
Can anyone put a usb branch compiled version of kismac? cuz i can’t seem to get it no matter how hard i try
Okay, so when I enter the “/usr/local/bin/svn co https://svn.binaervarianz.de/kismac/trunk/ kismac-source” command into Terminal, I get the following error:
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:826: (apr_err=175002)
svn: PROPFIND request failed on ‘/kismac/trunk’
subversion/libsvn_ra_dav/util.c:296: (apr_err=175002)
svn: PROPFIND of ‘/kismac/trunk’: 405 Method Not Allowed (https://svn.binaervarianz.de)
What’s wrong?
Also, I tried the “easy way” and when I set up for Airport Extreme, passive mode and try to scan, I get the error “Could not enable Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Your Airport Extreme driver has not been found.”
Any ideas?
I’m running a 2.16 GHz MacBook Pro.
yes you can reinject with your macbook/macbookpro using built-in device, but not with kismac and not with osX. Since the card is atheros chipset you can use the madwifi driver and aircrack if you dual-boot with linux. I do that and it does work. If you are not familiar with linux/unix this is not a recommended method for you tho…
For anyone that actually makes it down this far, the KisMAC web site and svn are back up at http://kismac-ng.com/ and http://kismac-ng.org/ with …. Please have a look at the FAQ; it may be long, but it covers pretty much everything you may need to know.
I also get the “Could not enable Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Your Airport Extreme driver has not been found†message. I’m using a MacBook Pro (”model identifier” MacBookPro2,2).
These instruction no longer work following the whole fiasco in germany shutting down the project – the project has been picked up in switzerland and you can use the following svn.
direct it to either svn://shoxed.com/svn/kismac/trunk or http://kismac-ng.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/.
Just a quick 1
I am going for the Linksys WUSB54GC to allow me to inject packets do i instal the drivers that come with it or Download and install subversion-client and Download and install XCode.

OS X 10.4.10
[...] KisMAC er et kjekt program til mac, som sniffer i trådløse nettverk i nærheten. Den samler data-pakker, og når det er samlet nok skal det være mulig å finne kryperingsnøkkelen. Dette må gjøres i såkalt passive mode, som KisMAC i utgangspunktet ikke støtter på MacBook og MacBook Pro, men dette fikset jeg ved å følge denne guiden; lvlolvlo.net/kismac-on-a-macbook/. [...]
How do I activate my Linksys WUSB54G ver.4 on my macbook? Will that be able to work?
It works but I read somewhere that Ralink does not support packet injection. I can collect packets, but once I get to the deauthentication/authentication and reinjecting packets it does not work, and the light that should be blinking on the Link does not blink. Any ideas on how to get this working on my macbook?
HERRO?
how come i am not collecting any data packets?
Has anyone figured out a fix for leopard yet? Is there anyone else working on this app now that it got banned in Germany?
This docu-wiki doesn’t work on a MacBook pro core 2, 2.2Ghz
any news?
thanks
Ok so I just got KisMAC 0.21a (0.2a [$Revision: 242$]), and I installed it, ran it up, messed with a few things. First..
I found many networks, no packets were showing up (collected),
Second,
I installed the Subversion Client hastily, don’t know wtf it does, and am concerned…
Third,
Again, your post is awesome… Why is this necessary for PASSIVE mode, I don’t even know what that is either, and this whole process, why is this necessary…
Broken down= what I am not supposed to be able to do because I HAVE a MAC BOOK.
Ok F’ed up.
In terminal I inputted the first line and hit enter, and now I can not enter the rest. I dont know what I did, definitely asking for some bail money now! Please help, anyone who has the knowledge.
THANK YOU!

Dude, tanks so fucking much!!!!!!!!!!
Youre the fucking man
Time well spent reading through these comments for the last hour or so, I only came via search to grab some Kismac info but stayed for pure time reading through all this, thanks for the site man, good stuff. I will be returning.
I’m just going to buy a cheap USB WiFi adapter [prism is it ? I forget--I'll read up the comments to find name] for my early 09 whitebook and then I can thoroughly test my networks security, bandits everywhere stealing bandwith around this neck of the woods !
peace beats ‘n love
