I decided to go back and try previous versions: r64, r63, ..., r48 and all
exhibit the same behavior with my ongoing session (92% or second half of the
PIN). I guess I never noticed before. All revisions try each PIN twice before
proceeding to the next one, at this rate it will take twice the time to guess
the second half of the PIN. Please, see if you can find the error in the state
machine. Thanks!
P.S.: It could be that timeouts are received but not presented (printed with
-vv) but then it would be too suspicious that each PIN needs exactly 2 tries to
go through.
P.S.: I vaguely remember that before the session saving was implemented in the
open source version it would only try PINs once for the second half. But I do
not want to regress my installed version that far back...

Does this happen on every AP, or just a specific one? Can you provide a pcap?

The old AP with the problem above was a Netgear E0:91:F5:... .
I tried again, using r66 now, on another AP from Cisco-Linksys 7C:03:4C:...
that was already completed by decreasing the second number in the .wps file and
making the third number in the .wps file a 2 --> 1 (revert to secod half of PIN
testing). As you can see from the output below, the problem persists.
Not sure if I'll be able to produce a pcap file, but advise what's the best way
to capture: airodump-ng, tcpdump, or wireshark? What filter? Thanks!

What command line options are you supplying to Reaver?
The easiest way to capture the traffic is to use Wireshark with a display
filter of 'eap || eapol'.

In addition to the -i, -b, and -s:
1) On the Netgear: -vv -c 6 -E -S -a -l 60 -s
2) On the Linksys: -vv -c 6 -E -S -d 0 -t 30

I have noticed on some Linksys devices that with -d 0 I get repeated pins (but
it happens when brute forcing both the first and second half of the pin). On
the Linksys, try only specifying the -i -b -s and -vv options and see if there
are still repeated pins.

I took the "-d 0" out (removed it) and tried again the Linksys. Problem
persists (see log below). I am surprised nobody else reproduced and commented
on this problem.
Note that I used "-d 0" originally after determining empirically that the AP
would buy it (no lockdowns) and since it was faster (on the Linksys), but the
same was not working well on the Netgear (maybe lower signal strength) so I
resorted to defaults (-a) on the Netgear. I.e., they were the optimum
parameters for my test cases in terms of overall speed.
There were definitely no duplicate PINs on the 1st half of the PIN tests on
either AP. Thanks!

With the "-d 0" still out I tried the 1st half of the PIN on the same Linksys
AP: no repeated PINS.

Restoring the "-d 0" option and continuing on the 1st half of the PIN: no

I tried to reproduce the problem with r67 (with debug output)--by the way the
-o option only sends stdout to the file, not stderr, so it is harder than it
should be to capture both stdout and stderr, I just didn't use -o and copied
all the output from the terminal--.
Surprisingly, I do not see duplicate PINs on the 2nd half of the PIN tests over
the Linksys AP. Output attached. Thanks!
P.S.: Hopefully that stays the same after you take the debug output out :-)

Part of the r67 update was to also ensure that M2D messages do not get sent;
checked in r68 which removes the debug output, verify that you still aren't
getting repeated pins.

Finally, r68 fixes the issue: no repeated PINs. Thanks!

Good, sounds like the removal of M2D message support (not needed for the
attack) fixed it. :)
