Hello everybody,

I have a question, this is my situation, I have an (AP) acces-point D-LINK
900 and a PC connected to the AP, both of them are connected with eth port.
Ethereal capture the eth0 (connected to AP) port of the PC.
The AP is connected to other AP that use WEP (WEP in ON), i don't know the
WEP key.
My AP is confgured as, WEP on and key is all ones.
When start capture (on eth0 of the PC) i can see only LLC packet, this means,
is right the key all ones?
Using the capture file, I can crack the WEP key, with any  tool, airsnort,
or wepcrack?
The last question is because i heard the crack wep is possible only if you
capture with a wireless card.

Thanks.
