no hacking required if you own the system: askubuntu.com/questions/156861/…– RinzwindAug 8, 2013 at 19:11

"Cracking a WiFi" doesn't sound like a legal request anywhere.– guntbertSep 6, 2015 at 20:35

1@guntbert: One might want to crack their own Wifi for academic purposes. I attended a workshop with that exact aim.– David FoersterSep 8, 2015 at 11:58

For finding WEP/WPA keys you can use aircrack-ng. It is in the repositories:
sudo apt-get install aircrack-ng
There is also kismet
sudo apt-get install kismet

1Thanks for your reply. But Show me the process. Somewhere in the web I read that both tools are not work properly and create problems. So, what would be the easy solution?– apu bossAug 9, 2013 at 7:00

1"But Show me the process" well personally I would not want you near my wireless and I can imagine others feel the same >:-D I can tell you it does work but it is not an "works out of the box" tool. It requires a good setup and mosttimes that setup only applies to your case. I would continue this here: ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=338 :-)– RinzwindAug 9, 2013 at 14:59
