I don't understand what the problem is and what you are seeing. This is your statement:
[quote]
why is it guessing passwords that are only two characters
[/quote]
but your screenshot clearly says that the passwords look like this:
Code:
discordantnediscordantne
this password candidate is definitely longer than the minimum password length for WPA (which is 8 bytes/characters).
the status screen also confirms that it rejected a lot of too short (or long) passwords:
Code:
Rejected.........: 9762060/63333900 (15.41%)
15 % of the passwords were not considered because they didn't meet the password length requirements for this specific hash type.
It looks like everything is working perfectly fine. I don't see any problem in your status screen and can't confirm any of your claims
Yes your correct when it comes to what I posted but for the first eight hours it was running two four and five characters It's not the first time I have had this happen. In a few days when it's done running these hashes I will restart it on the same list and post it when it is at the beginning it only does it for a few hours then it does exactly what you saw. Thank you for your help I really appreciate it. It's kind of disheartening when your having a problem and you ask a question and it just gets ignored, (Stack Exchange, Git Hub.) Thank you again.
