Re: MAC filtering and WPA2
Every little bit helps. Everything you do that adds effort to cracking your network is just one more reason for them to go down the street to all the open AP’s.

Orun,

yep, it’s true that MAC filtering is a waste of time. It’s easy to spoof that. As for WPA, yes it’s harder to crack – but it can be done. I think it’s the principle of the low hanging fruit. If someone wants in bad enough, sure they probably will do it if they’re skillful enough. Most folks, however, move on to easier targets. And yes, SSID in non-broadcast mode won’t hide you either.

5: MAC Address filtering is almost useless- tools? what tools? Cloning your mac into your settings takes like 30 seconds. MAC Address filtering isn’t going to change anything for you from someone who actually has some clue of what they’re doing. Neither will hiding your SSID.

And there are WPA cracking methods too- and I mean other than Brute-Forcing it.

[...] Network security is a huge issue. The problem has moved from having a firewall block a single point of entry, my Internet connection, to somehow blocking the airwaves where my internal wireless signal is. Since there is no way to block it I have encrypted it. There are choices about that when you install the network and the only way to go is WPA2. I’m referring you to an excellent article on this at GoPaulTech.com and yes; I will be having PaulTech test my system using Kismet. Results of the testing will follow later.

..I display my SSID quite happily.

It will take more tools to disguise yourself as a MAC address I allow in my Wireless MAC filter

What PCIMA card do you use with Linux? I have a built in Intel wireless card but most software in linux won’t support this… i need a suggestion which wireless card could work in linux and allow cracking of WEP.
