HI Jeanette, I suppose you updated you system but did not reboot before trying to mount that filesystem? Then the behaviour is easily explained: during the update of the kernel (the package is named linux) all files belonging to the running kernel are removed and replaced with new files under

From my experience, tcpdump connects to the interface and you will see all traffic regardless of firewall settings, given you have the permissions. In your case I'd first verify that layer 2 is working correctly (layer 2 is ethernet or wifi). So I'd use the utilities provided by "wpa_suppl
