To start of, I understand that their are a lot of tools popping up when searching for iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak. With the overwhelming number of tools, it can be really difficult to know which tool to use.

The most used tools to jailbreak iOS 5.1.1 are the following: Rocky Racoon by Cydia, Absinthe, RedSn0w, CLI, PwnageTool and Sn0wBreeze. This tools are all capable of jailbreaking iOS 5.1.1 however you should also be aware of some important information,

I know that some words can be too techy and some are having a hard time understanding it so lets use plain and simple words. First, it is easier if you know what tools are compatible with the system you are using:

Windows user:

Absinthe, RedSn0w, Sn0wBreeze, CLI

Mac user:

Absinthe, RedSn0w, PwnageTool, CLI

Linux user:

Absinthe, CLI

Now that you know which tool is compatible with the system your are using, let us start simplifying the A5 and A4 devices. Always keep in mind that all tools mentioned above are capable of jailbreaking A4 device or below on iOS 5.1.1, so its better to focus on tools that works with A5 devices like iPhone 4S, iPad2 and iPad3.

A5 compatible tools:

Absinthe, RedSn0w, CLI

Alright, we have covered some must to know information, so for example you’re using Linux, and you have a iPad2, the only tools that you can use are Absinthe and CLI.

To narrow it down, for basic jailbreak, the Absinthe has proven to work on all three major platform (Windows, Mac and Linux), however, majority of the people says that RedSn0w has the best options and is much flexible for jailbreaking iOS 5.1.1.
