Your password is 50 characters long and has 116,320,474,668,503,070,608,508,391,666,459,145,206,409,924,667,025,896,641,029,831,814,153,240,576 combinations.
It takes 423,171,421,674,862,615,358,536,974,477,680,433,506,647,840,356,985,022,084,808,704.00 hours or 17,632,142,569,785,940,403,608,783,661,956,843,318,395,700,748,880,860,743,204,864.00 days to crack your password on computer that tries 137,438,953,472 passwords per hour. This is based on a typical PC processor in 2008 and that the processor is under 10% load.

Imagine if it got it on the third guess.
 
A password assigned to an ip address wouldn't be much use for anything anyway.

I wonder how fast a GPU would decode the password in :O!

Gpu's are at least 20x faster in bruteforcing tests. When you take moores law into account, you can break 128-bit encryption in less than 100 years, assuming the most difficult password possible is used.

Imagine if it got it on the third guess.

You would start with a dictionary attack and then start bruteforcing at the beggining, as people are more likely to have shorter passwords than longer ones. Studies have actually shown that most peoples passwords are one word with the number after it, in about 90% of cases that number is 1!

I think you need to think about how a bruteforce password hacker works :p (if your password is z, then it will take 26 'goes' to find it, hence 26 combos!)

But the password was a number, there is not 26 combo's :p

If I shave the last 13 characters off my WPA2 key I get.. nothing, as it takes ages.

Using the full WPA2 key in the spreadsheet I get:

3,118,239,164,302,930,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years :p

Remember that for these statistic to work, the program must already know the length of your password. Thats a very valuable piece of information already.
Without knowing the size of your password, you have to add up all the numbers together, it starts getting quickly out of hands

1: 26
2: 26 + (26 * 26)
3: 26 + (26 * 26) + (26 * 26 * 26)

Etc. The cgi in the OP only counts the last component.
 
My main password,

"Your password is 17 characters long and has 37,584,327,546,754,826,240,000 combinations.
It takes 136,730,987,093.89 hours or 5,697,124,462.25 days to crack your password on computer that tries 137,438,953,472 passwords per hour. This is based on a typical PC processor in 2008 and that the processor is under 10% load."

Should do the job I think.
 
I just tested some passwords i use at work for key systems, all of them are are over 3000 days to break according to that. :D.
