 The [[http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/|Forum]] is also an excellent source for finding solutions to problems.  It is extremely important to first attempt to resolve a problem yourself prior to posting.  Your question will be ignored if the answer is easily available on the wiki or forum.  Conversely, people will try their best to help you if you demonstrate you researched the problem first and could not solve it.  Also be sure to supply the details of your setup and what you have tried when you post. The [[http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/|Forum]] is also an excellent source for finding solutions to problems.  It is extremely important to first attempt to resolve a problem yourself prior to posting.  Your question will be ignored if the answer is easily available on the wiki or forum.  Conversely, people will try their best to help you if you demonstrate you researched the problem first and could not solve it.  Also be sure to supply the details of your setup and what you have tried when you post.
