Cracking a password present in wordlist doesn't work
#1
Hello there,

First of all i'm kinda new in pen testing and cracking, so I might lack some knowledge, this is why i'm asking here.

I have captured data with hcxdumptool via this comand:
Code:
hcxdumptool -i wlan0 -o dumpfile.pcapng --active_beacon --enable_status=15

Let it run for a while to check all frequencies and then run that one:

Code:
hcxpcapngtool -o hash.hc22000 -E essidlist dumpfile.pcapng

From the hash file I isolated the desired WPA*01*..... with the mac address i wanna try to crack and put it in a separate .hc22000 file.

From that I ran:
Code:
hashcat -m 22000 myhash.hc22000 rockyou.txt

I know the password of the Wifi and he's present in the wordlist but for some reason hascat didn't recovered it.
Am I doing something wrong ?

EDIT: I noticed that WPA*01 are kinda short lines as WPA*02 are way longer, what's the difference between the two ?
