WEP Key Changer project, in short WepKC is a client/server application that allows you to protect your ad-hoc (point to point) wireless network when you are unable to use (due to software or hardware limitations) sophisticated protocols like WPA.

The program consists out of two parts:

the wepkcd daemon, which randomly changes the WEP key after a specified amount of time and sends the chosen key, encrypted with AES, to the wepkcc client
the wepkcc client, which receives the key through the encrypted channel and changes the WEP key in the client machine

The server also waits for packets ("pings") from the client, resetting the WEP key to a defined value when the client goes down and stops pinging the server.

If someone tries to use the wireless network without contacting the server, the connection will be dropped repeatedly in order to prevent further annoyance from strangers (please note that this feature, at the moment, works only in *nix systems).

And it's very easy to setup and use.

Requirements:
  • python 2.4
  • python crypto

    Configuration:
    The easiest way to configure WepKC is by using the setup.py script provided in the package. We suggest to do the configuration (for both client and server) all at once on a single machine, then to copy the appropriate configuration files or to complete setup on the other computer.

    Configuration files with a lot of comments are available in the package as examples. Please refer to them for fine tuning, as setup.py configures only the most relevant parameters.

    Usage:
    Make sure you've installed all the required software (look into the Windows-install and Linux-install directories in the package) and configured both the client and the server on your machines (by running setup.py), then run:

    wepkcd.py - which is the daemon (server), on the first computer
    wepkcc.py - which is the client, on the second one

    Remember that you'll need root privileges (or setuid root) on linux and administrator privileges on Windows.
