So, here's my attempt at hacking my home network using wifite:

Yes I do have permission from my own family to hack a device on my own home network with the owner's permission. That said, I want to gain access to the network key even though I already have it for penetration testing purposes.
Wifite is script that runs other programs right? I can find the clients' MAC addresses occasionally on my home network, but after that the attack always seems to fail. For some attacks it doesn't fail, but I set the timer for all night and it takes all night right? I get up and its still going, whether or not I found mac addresses. What the fark?! I set it for 18000 seconds, which is five hours. When I wake up the next morning it hasn't cracked anything and I would move onto the next attack but then class starts. Should I give it a longer time if I'm trying to test my home network?
My other question (I know it is but just in case), is cracking my own home network, with my family's (the owners of the network) permission illegal? Should I stop doing what I'm doing before I make it work?
nmap
to identify the services on your device. Then you would research how to attack implementations of those services.
