Read the advice that is provided in an alternate color in the output. You also probably want -O and -w 3 or higher (if you can stand the desktop lag).

So many people bypass the info that is right in front of them.

You also probably want -O

As far as I know, using '-O' has no effect on WPA.

As far as I know, using '-O' has no effect on WPA.

Ah, yes - good catch (though I usually tell people to always add it regardless, because 99.9% of the time, they don't want longer candidate passwords (and if they do, they either usually already know better, or they're trying an attack that will never work anyway)).
