I am newbie. I just used Reaver to crack a WPA and got these : WPS pin : xx WPA PSK: yy AP-MAC: zz When I clicked connect in Win 7 it asked me Security Key. What is that? Can someone point threads if posted before
1) WPS Pin is 8 numerical characters long 2) WPA PSK is the password 8 - 63 characters long. 3) AP MAC is the MAC address of the router you cracked. Enter the WPA PSK
Hope you had got your answer. For newbie, may be who will face the same issue, may get information from here. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) is technology designed solely to automate the initial setup of a Wi-Fi connection. WPS doesn't use encryption — and can actually bypass whatever encryption might otherwise be in use! If your new wireless router is equipped with a WPS button, then the initial setup of the router becomes almost effortless. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access Version 2) are security protocols that use encryption for secure access and ongoing communication between connected Wi-Fi devices.
