[Bug 69698] Re: airodump-ng is unable to set monitor mode
This is not a bug, it's a driver issue. I have this problem with my bcm43xx chipset card, and here's how I do it: (note, your devices may differ, and I haven't bothered to set up the wlan0 alias yet, hence the wlan0_rename device) ifconfig wlan0_rename down; iwconfig wlan0_rename mode monitor; ifconfig wlan0_rename up; airodump-ng -w filename wlan0_rename I do this as root. When I used a different driver, the command was similar, like this: ifconfig wlan0 down; iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor; ifconfig wlan0 up; airodump-ng -w filename wlan0 This probably won't help the O/P, but perhaps someone else will be helped by it... -- airodump-ng is unable to set monitor mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/69698 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

For the record, my wireless card chipset is an Ralinktech RT61, PCMCIA version. I've now upgraded to Feisty and with the Serialmonkey drivers it seems to be working okay! -- airodump-ng is unable to set monitor mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/69698 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
