Wireless Password Recovery - password filters



Filters are used to skip passwords considered to be needless. For example, you can limit the minimum and maximum length, bypass passwords with only Latin characters, and so on.

Password filters

Filters are global across all attacks and are applied when generating dictionaries as well (refer to attack settings for more info on dictionary generators).

Be careful, some filters are mutually exclusive and can stall the program, some may affect performance drastically.
