```sudo apt install aircrack-ng```

### WiFi device
Furthermore you‘ll need a WiFi card which aircrack-ng is able to put into monitor-mode. See [the aircrack-ng page](https://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compatibility_drivers) for supported devices or simply try it out.
This software was tested with a [TP-Link TL-WN722N](https://www.amazon.de/TP-Link-TL-WN722N-High-Gain-Antenne-WLAN-Empfang-unterst%C3%BCtzt/dp/B002SZEOLG/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1524723875&sr=8-5&keywords=tp+link+wifi+adapter) adapter.

## Technical background
WiFi jamming isn‘t magic! It basically relies on a fault in the WPA/WPA2 handshake design.

Thereby it's possible to send „[de-auth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_deauthentication_attack)“ packages to the multicast address of a WiFi network. In result all connected clients get disconnected from it. Aircrack-ng implements it in a way that all clients, except the sending one, get kicked out.

De-auth packages always get send unencrypted. That means it would be technically possible to disconnect clients of a WPA/WPA2 encrypted WiFi network even if you‘re not connected to it. However Wammer is implement in a way that makes it necessary to be connected to the attacked WiFi network.
