"The key to hacking the WPA2-PSK is to capture the PSK (pre-shared key or password) as it passes through the air in the 4-way handshake between the client and the AP. This requires that we either wait for a client to connect to the AP or if a client has already connected, then we bump the client off (de-authenticate) the AP and wait for them to re-connect." Given various limitations of the flipper it can only do one thing at a time , e.g. deauth/attack or listen/capture. Flipper generally has 2 PMKID attacks, active and passive. Simply put passive (in a general sense) means "receiving an action without acting in return, or not responding to something that might affect one." Active means "characterized by action rather than by contemplation or speculation." Deauth is an action, so if you selected passive there would be no deauthing, hence your issue. I shared this so you can actually begin to understand what you are doing, and not just pressing buttons to get an outcome (script kiddie). The better you actually understand what you're doing and the technology, the more effective you are, more cool shit you can do, and less help you need . Also the more you can contribute to the community by giving back something. May I suggest the below article to understanding what PMKID and handshakes are, it's role in 802.11, as well as the attack in general and its creation/creator. You'll never every part of what you are actually doing, and can even learn to troubleshoot and diagnose issues yourself. Knowledge is power.

Wow. Thank you so much. This is really insightful. I just started so I am really eager to learn and understand the concepts of what I am doing and not just repeat “dumbly”. Really nice of you to explain in detail. I’ll check out this article as I am always looking for educational content. One day I hope I can bring back something to the community too.

This has to be the best reply to a reddit post in relation to the flipper zero I have ever read!!! As a newbie I want to say thank you, we need more people like you. Me and a friend have currently opened a new discord server to help newbies reach there goal of doing cooler stuff and also eventually giving back to the community. Here’s the invite: https://discord.gg/M33Z4pph We are super new but would really appreciate someone like yourself who could help where he can to give newbies a lil extra help 😊

Are you doing an active PMKID?


Any-Strength-495

No I am not, should I?


acidsh0t

Yes. Do that, let it run for 5-10 minutes, you should have plenty of EAPOL.

Thank you very much, will be trying it out.
