A new excellent article by the (also excellent) Raul Siles at the RaDaJo blog describing a practical demostration of the new kind of WEP-cracking described in the paper “Breaking 104 bit WEP in less than 60 seconds” by Erik Tews, Ralf-Philipp Weinmann, and Andrei Pyshkin. Raul uses this information together with the aircrack-ptw tool and the latest release of Backtrack 2 to check the validity of the method.
And guess what? It works beautifully :)
In Raul’s own words: “Awesome results and advancements for auditing the security of WEP-based wireless networks!“
Stop using WEP now. Switch to WPA/WPA2 as soon as possible.

Here is the complete kit:
