Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] 802.11 monitoring help

There are some tools you can use to decrypt WPA within PCAP files if WPA decryption is not possible on Linux wireshark. Aircrack-ng includes a tool called Airdecap-ng which you can use to decrypt the traffic. It's not a perfect solution however if your use airdecap-ng and leave the 802.11 headers intact, you can match the WLAN SEQ #s from the outfile and the infile.

Hope this helps!

IIRC WPA decryption is not available on Linux - it requires the use of
airpcap on Windows and if on windows, it will only work with PSK, not
802.1X of course.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
