Here is a recent .cap, tried 8 digit and hashcat returned 100% . I am currently testing the limits of the machine, and knowing the right answer will redirect my path towards learning.

hack 'em all, thanks petrovivo. I used a numeric only list. Curiosity: does this router has the same vulnerability that those NETGEAR where the necessity is to search for 3 ?l?l?l, because there is already "fixed" parameters? --- Double Post Merged, 18 Apr 2024, Original Post Date: 18 Apr 2024 --- cojovi said: ↑ holy cow thats not only impressive but that was fast! just for curiosity, as far as the cracking is concerned is it 95% about the quality of the word list? im just try ing to diagnose what i did wrong or not adequate enought to be able to crack it myself.. again thanks alexb ! With Spectrum (and some netgrear) routers then it's all about the wordlist as they use the following format for their default passwords: adjective + noun + ddd You can down the netgear-spectrum.txt wordlist which has about 90% of the known adj+noun combinations here: https://github.com/soxrok2212/PSKracker/tree/master/dicts/netgear-spectrum, then just add ?d?d?d when attempting to crack. hashcat format: hashcat -m 22000 hash.txt -a6 netgear-spectrum.txt ?d?d?d #1357 alexb, 6 May 2023 https://xiaopan.co/forums/threads/netgearxx-wordlist.6571/page-68
