Welcome to the reaver-wps-fork-t6x 1.6b wiki!

Why can't I update my repo with git pull?

In case you get errors when doing git pull, try the following steps
git merge --abort
git fetch off (where off is the name of the upstream repo)
git branch -m master master-old_local (rename your master branch to master-old_local)
git checkout off/master
git checkout -b master
... You should now have the current master branch.

My USB with a Ralink Chip doesn't associate and reaver won't send a single PIN... Is there a fix?

There are known issues with the devices that uses rt2800usb drivers (chips RT3070, RT3272, RT3570, RT3572 etc) . There is unfortunately right now no solution. You can try to use bully which works a little better with these chipsets.

What can I do when Reaver reports "AP rate limiting detected"?

Wait until the the Access Point re-enables WPS or try to reboot the Access Point remotely. Reaver does not have an option to unlock routers with rate limiting. If you find a way to remotely reboot a router or to remotely revert the WPS open an issue to share your method and we will be very glad to introduce it in reaver.
