Hello E-H!

Just wanted to keep everyone up-to-date with my progress! I officially was enrolled into OSWP on the 18th, and went through the course within a couple of days. The course isn't nearly as lengthy as PWB. A couple days later I actually sent in challenge request date which happened to be today and I already took my OSWP certification exam. I was able to successfully obtain all the keys and have sent in my results, just awaiting official decision right now.

Had a blast in the class! My aunt loaned me her router, I've had an Alfa card for a couple years now. I had always used point-n-click tools to break into my AP, but now can successfully say I've dabbled in the command-line arts for getting my wifu on. I felt the class really gave a good introduction to the aircrack-ng suite and I may possibly leave a review of it here shortly. Some may think between the amount of time I enrolled versus when I scheduled my exam was pretty quick (less than 1 week of being enrolled in the course), but I actually dedicated a lot of time breaking into my router with various configurations, and wrote down well over 5 pages of notes! It's tons of practice, practice, practice! I definitely picked up on a good amount it makes me wonder how this course stacks up against SANS GAWN course.

Did you find the material to be dated?

@Dark_Knight - I'd say it's relevant, the attacks can be easily applied and work successfully. I notice a lot of the networks around me are WPA/WPA2. I think a couple years ago, WEP was more prevalent. They definitely need to update the course. I recall the v1 course was published in 2007, I was expecting to get this version when I signed up but the Lab Guide said it was from 2009 and the course was currently at version 2. A few new attacks have been added to aircrack-ng since then that weren't included in the course because they must not of been around at the time. More tools could've been introduced, but if it was based around the aircrack-ng suite I think they did a good job introducing it. The WPA section was pretty minimal, but it explained what you needed to know in order to crack WPA.

After registering for the course, you’ll be able to download all your course materials, including the entire Offensive Security WiFU v.3.0 course video series in SWF format. These videos can be played on any modern computer with speakers.

Current version of the WiFu course is 2.0.

Version 3.0 is planned to be released in the next few months.
As always, all our students who have purchase the current version, will be able to upgrade their course materials to the new version (once available). The fee will be the difference between the current fee and the new one.

Did you guys notice that said:  The fee will be the difference between the current fee and the new one

Come on, that's mean price increase.......
