Wifi router apps removed from Market

[Guest ZTEBlade0]

I seen in the past the apps Router Keygen and Wifi Password Recovery in the Market, now they are removed for some reason. Anywhere i can find the apks?

Trying to hack into someone else's wireless network is neither big nor clever. Grow up!

What the hell is that supposed to mean? I am testing my own routers. Got a problem with that?

lol.....sure. IF you were "testing your own routerS" you would be technical and resourceful and quite easily find the APKs.

...and besides which if the apps have been removed from the Market you have nothing to worry about.

because bad guys can't get them now :mellow: everything is secure now they've left the Android Market, might as well leave your Thomson router with it's default password.

:mellow: exactly :o Anyone that admins wireless will remove any management access from wireless clients anyway.

From what I read on XDA you'll never be able to properly crack WEP on android, since promiscuous mode is not supported at the hardware level.

It doesn't crack WEP. This only cracks the default wireless key on certain models of Thomson routers (which a lot of popular adsl isps like to supply), because they're not random, they're generated using a weak algorithm & it gives away information in the wireless network name.

If somebody changes their password from the default, or changes the network name, it doesn't work. So it's an easy fix that any halfway technically minded person should have already done. That in mind, the 'penetration testing my own networks' excuse is a bit lame.

And to change your default key :unsure:

Really I think "password" is more secure than the default Thompson / Speedtouch keys :)

[Guest N3M35I5]

all these router keygens do is generate's the default key from the router names. Change your routers ssid and problem solves, it can't be generated.

But if you have WEP it's very very very easy to crack but wpa2 is hard along as you have a long and complex password.

for me i just use my graphics card to brute force wpa1/2 easy peasy lol

only my own ofc >.>

Thanks, i had already found it elsewhere.

What about the 'Wi Fi Password Recovery' app?

lol.....sure. IF you were "testing your own routerS" you would be technical and resourceful and quite easily find the APKs.

Maybe then i am not "technical and resourceful' or maybe i don't have time to search. What you mean in the next sentence makes no sense although i read it several times, if the apps have beem removed from the Market, i have nothing to worry about?! I see that they ARE removed from the Market. And why would i worry about something in the first place?

. That in mind, the 'penetration testing my own networks' excuse is a bit lame.

If you re refering to me, i said i am testing my own routers, not my own networks. For example, my Thomson router wpa default key was immediately found by a similar app. Another similar app presented me with two possible keys for my router and one of them was indeed the default. Of course i had changed the default wpa key a long time ago. However some Thomson keys from the neighborhood for example it can't use the algorithm. I wonder why. Also what does it mean when they refer to "Thomson based" routers. Do they have some kind of hardware common?

I have never understand why people protect their WIFI .

I know there is a risk in some countries about P2P , france by exemple, monitor pirats.

switzerland doesnt have any law about P2P. you are authorised to download whatever you want as long you don't share.

they mean, you can download, but can not make DVD/CD and give to your friends, or sell.

in my point of view, people who lock their wifi are just jealous, "if you want connect on my WIFI, pay for it!"

this society is full of egoist people...Swiss are the most egoist people on this planet.

please ,share your connection for the good of humanity!

Two reasons not to share your wi-fi....

1. Any illegal content (ie extreme porn) could be traced back to the IP address that downloaded, ie, you! Claiming it was probably next door or some person walking down the street who happened to use your open wi-fi conenction probably won't cut the ice with the police when they burst through your door at 4 in the morning.

2. Not everyone gets unlimited broadband downloads. So, if you're happy with your limit then, all of a sudden your ISP lands a hefty bill on your doorstep for excess use, thanks to the kid next door downloading a nice set of HD quality copies of the latest teen flicks, you'd just shrug and say "Oh well, never mind"?
