Getting a WiFi connection is a major concern once you are addicted to the web and mostly in the online world. When we hear the term hack, it strikes in our mind that it is the job of a high-end technology guy or a hacker. But to “hack WiFi password”, you don’t need to be a skilled technologist because even a non-technical guy can do it with some tricks and methods.
Most people have asked me the procedure to crack WiFi passwords, so today I am here with the solution and tricks for internet hack free WiFi from the major providers like AT&T, Comcast, and Xfinity.
P.S. The WiFi password hacker tools are meant for fun/general purpose only and do not contain any functionality to attempt criminal acts. Therefore, you should be very cautious while operating them.
Wifi Hacker tools
(1) WiFi Hacker
Wifi Requires A Wpa2 Password
WiFi Hacker is a simple and informal tool that makes hacking WiFi easy and safe without having required any technical knowledge. This software can crack WiFi passwords with some clicks and hack unlimited WiFi networks. WiFi Hacker gives you access to multiple offices or school wifi networks, including Comcast, AT&T, etc. which are equipped with tighter security. You can hack any locked password within minutes and anonymously because WiFi Hacker conceals your identity and personal information.
How to hack a WiFi password with WiFi Hacker?
WiFi Hacker performs a search operation of the open/ password protected wireless networks available in your area and connects to them. Once a connection is recognized, WiFi Hackers start finding the packets. On gaining the encrypted packets, it attempts a number of attacks to obtain the password and decrypts it using numerical attacks. Cracking the network always depends on the duration and the security level of the password being worked upon.

- Tap on the key to copy it and open WiFi menu to connect with the code.
How to steal WiFi with WPS Wireless Scanner? (Android)
WPS Wireless Scanner is an Android app and a simple way to break WiFi password by scanning the wireless networks with WPS filters. The application scans for the nearest WiFi connections with different modes like normal scan, fast/slow scan, turbo scan, etc. and displays the network status with detailed information. You can find the open WiFi networks and access them by clicking on the open network.
To hack someone’s WiFi with WPS Wireless Scanner, follow these steps:
- Install WPS Wireless Scanner on your Android device.
- Launch the app and it will automatically scan for the WPS wireless networks.
- Click on the network that you want to hack.
- Note down the eight-digit PIN provided.
- Open your PC/laptop and enter the eight-digit PIN in the password field.
- You have successfully cracked the WiFi network.

Use iWep Pro 8 to crack WiFi passwords (iOS)
iWep Pro 8 is an iPhone app that can check for vulnerabilities in your routers and offers various tools and techniques to check whether your router is open to the key calculation. You can find a supported router’s WEP/WPA key by simply clicking on them. iWep Pro 8 scans through the available WiFi networks and attempts to detect the password. The application runs on iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices.
Yesterday, my friend Victor wanted to crack a wifi network (his, of course) using his MacBook Pro.
I told him to use the excellent VirtualBox images of Kali Linux from Offensive Security and aircrack-ng.
I had just forgotten that:
- Using advanced wireless features is impossible from a virtual machine
- Even if he used Kali Linux with a dual boot, installing the wireless drivers to make it work with the airport card is tiresome.
- Most (not
airmon-ng) aircrack-ng tools can be installed on macOS with MacPorts, butairodump-ngandaireplay-ngcrash.
So PLEASE, if you want to do other advanced networking things than network sniffing or what is described in this article, do yourself a favour and buy an USB adapter to use with the virtual machine.
There is a list on the website of aircrack-ng, and I think the Alfa AWUS051NH v2 is great.Some people say it is expensive, but last time I checked on Google Shopping, it cost less than half an Apple mouse.
There are 3 steps:
- Identify the target acces point: name (= BSSID), MAC address (= SSID) and channel (~ radio frequency)
- Sniff the channel in monitor mode to retrieve:
- a beacon (easy)
- a handshake (= four-way handshake), or some frames of it (hard)
- Crack the password using the dump
What makes the retrieval of the handshake hard is that it appears only when somebody connects to the access point.
The good news is that you can deauthentificate people from the wifi network - it’s called wifi jamming and it’s useful to impress a girl and piss off people at Starbucks.When they reconnect, they re-send the handshake. That adds a Deauth step.
“Install”
Scan
It saves the .cap capture file and displays the path.
If you don’t have the beacon or the handshake, it will fail accordingly.
For wordlists, see below.
As I said, aireplay-ng doesn’t work on a MacBook Pro.The catch is that aireplay-ng can do a lot of other things besides deauth attacks.
You might read that airport cards do not support packet injection, but packet injections are for WEP attacks and nobody uses WEP anymore. We only want to send some deauthentification frames.
Use JamWiFi. A ready-to-use application is provided there.
In fact, you can indentify the target with it too, and it has a really nice GUI.
Once you have selected the access point, you can deauth one or multiple users. Stop after about 50 “Deauths”, or else the persons might have trouble to reconnect during several minutes.
It might not work it you are too far from the target as your airport card is far less powerful than the router.
Using airport presents some issues. You cannot know if you got the beacon and the handshake until you stop the capture and try with aircrack-ng.
You capture a lot of unuseful packets too.
Using tcpdump is more efficient.
When you launch those lines, the first tcpdump easily captures a beacon and the second waits for the handshake.
Use JamWiFi to deauth some users, and when tcpdump shows you it got 4 frames or more, Ctrl-C. It appears you can use less that 4 frames, but it depends on the frames you got (for instance 1,2 or 2,3 are sufficient). Anyway you should normally get at least 4. If nothing shows, try to deauth another user.
Now you have everything in capture.cap. You can also run aircrack-ng on it.
Like aireplay-ng, aircrack-ng offers so many features that it cannot be the best in everything.
We can really speed up the process by using hashcat.
Install with brew
Convert with cap2hccapx
hashcat doesn’t take cap files, only hccapx files.
Just install hashcat-utils and use cap2hccapx
Mac Wifi Wpa2
Alternatively, use this online tool.

This page provides some examples.
To use with a dictionnary:

You have a lot of other options, like brute force:
Refer to the documentation fot more patterns.
Speed
hashcat works on the GPU.
On my MacBook Pro, it yields a performance of 5kH/s: it tests 5000 passwords in a second.
On a Tesla K20m, the speed is 75kH/s. I managed to crack the 5 last lowercase letters of a wifi password in about 1 minute (26**5 // 75000 = 158 seconds to test them all).
Wpa2 Password Mac
We can see here that a GTX 1080 breaks 400kH/s.
I recommend:
For more efficiency, target the networks with silly names (good examples are “mozart”, “I love cats”, “Harry and Sally”), and avoid the ones called “National Security Agency”, “sysadmin” and “sup3r h4x0r”.
To find a password, you have to be lucky and have a good idea of its shape.
A lot of default wifi passwords are composed of 8 or 10 hexadecimal digits.
Wifi Password Wpa2 Hack Mac Os X
In average (worst case divided by 2) and according to the above benchmark, with a GTX 1080:
- 8 hexadecimal characters take 90 minutes.
- 10 hexadecimal characters take 16 days.
- 12 hexadecimal characters take 11 years.
If you only want free wifi, just do MAC spoofing on a hotspot that uses web login.
