This is a query not an issue: regarding saving position.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Good morning and please pardon my ignorance.

My query is regarding the saving of the session. 

Does Reaver automatically save position as it running or only when you stop the 
app and it says it has saved the session?

My main reason of question is that the router I am testing at the moment 
(Provided by Sky broadband UK) allows between 20 and 24 (unsure why it changes) 
attempts and then will always lock out for 1 hour. 

So my estimated maximum calculation going based on 20 keys per hour to reach 
11000 keys is 500 hours which is about 21 days to crack this password.

Now that is a very long time! and if my computer was to crash and it hadnt 
saved automatically that could be a devastating loss of time.

I appreciate you response greatly since I know this isnt an issue of the 
application.

Thanks,

Dean.

I was on 31% (took me 2 days) and it suddenly started from 0% when i started it 
again lol. I modified the key.c file and set priority 1 (so they get executed 
first) to keys from 3100 (where i'm sure it was)
