NOTE: The WPSPixie attack may not work on some routers, and you will have to choose a different route. Be aware that it may take up to 30 minutes in some cases, although I have never personally seen it go beyond 10 or so minutes. In most cases, you can get the WiFi password in minutes or even a few seconds. The WPSPixie attack is one of the best attacks on Wifi points I have ever seen. I only go this route if the WPSPixie attack fails and there is no anti-bruteforce mechanism (Wifite will tell you if detects one). Now the obvious disadvantage about the WPS PIN attack is that some routers have on-board anti-bruteforce mechanisms and will stop accepting your attempts after a few attempts. The WPS PIN attack works online, as in all PIN guesses are actually sent to the router, while the WPSPixie attack works offline and without flooding the router with WPS PIN attempts.

There are 2 attacks you can do on WPS enabled routers, a WPS PIN bruteforce and a WPSPixie attack.
