Just finished reading Newbie Guide.
I am using an android smart phone for test. I have made a wifi hot spot with WEP key with that.
I am trying to crack that key with my laptop and my laptop is also the only client of the hotspot.
My driver is patched successfully. Injection test successfully passed.
As normally I can't get enough IV ( only 1307 in 46 min ) I am trying arp replay.
But when I give this command:
sudo aireplay-ng --arpreplay -b 8E:77:16:01:C6:3C -h 9C:2A:70:37:ED:6F mon0
where:
8E:77:16:01:C6:3C - is the BSSID address of AP ( actually hotspot )
9C:2A:70:37:ED:6F - is the MAC of cliend ( actually my device MAC as I am also the client)
mon0 - is my interface in monitor mood.
It gives following error -
Invalid source MAC address
Cant understand why its giving this error and how to solve this problem!

May be I have found what my problem was.
First time when I was trying to make ARP replay attack I didn't open monitor mood in specific AP channel.May be that was the problem.
Now its working fine.

You can also set your channel by doing.
iwconfig iface channel #
Where iface is your monitor interface wlan0, mon0, etc and # is the channel number
ex. iwconfig mon0 channel 6

Or use airmon-ng to set it when entering monitor mode.
