So if you are attacking one AP and the AP locks you out (aka, you get the rate 
limiting warning), then you stop reaver and re-start it against a completely 
different AP and reaver sees the new AP as locked also? How do you know that 
both APs aren't locked? Can you provide reaver output and pcaps?

The "AP rate limiting" message reflects the fact that the target AP is 
reporting in its beacon packets that WPS is locked. Some APs lock themselves 
indefinitely after X number of failed attempts. Some APs provide the option to 
lock WPS in the administrative interface, so it can be indefinitely locked by 
the user. Some APs incorrectly report that they are locked when they aren't.

You can specify the --ignore-locks option to tell Reaver to attempt the attack 
even if WPS is reportedly locked. YMMV, if the AP really has locked WPS then 
the attack will not succeed.

That is what you should see during a successful attack. Looks like the AP was 
lying and hadn't really locked WPS. :)

@ love
you can try -L, and if nothing happens you have to wait there is no work 
arround if
the AP locks you.

I have been running reaver for 24 hours now only at 22% I keep getting the 
lockedout warning as well. Ive tried the --ignore-locks but it just throws 
reaver into a loop trying the same pin. is there a way I can tell reaver to try 
pins from a selected range?

I am being affected by a rate limiter but it stops at exactly 5 60 second wait 
period. So im guessing the AP has a wait 5 minute setting when too many 
attempts have been detected. If you continuously get the AP rate limiter 
detection, then it may be set to permanent lockout. I am just letting mine bang 
away. Patience is part of this game.
