For the last year or so I have been using this exact setup with Kali 1.0. Everything worked fine with Wireshark. Now, when I am connected to a Wi-Fi access point my card REFUSES to stay in monitor mode. I have tried the following.
Scenario 1:
- Live boot Kali 2.0
- Open terminal
- $airmon-ng start wlan1 (a USB wireless adapter I have used for sniffing in the past)
- output is now wlan1mon (I understand why it outputs this I read the Kali docs)
- Connect to my home network
- Open Wireshark and listen to wlan1mon
- I only see Broadcast ARP requests and traffic from my machine
Scenario 2:
- Live boot Kali 2.0
- Open terminal
- ifconfig wlan1 down
- iwconfig wlan1 mode monitor
- ifconfig wlan1 up
- Connect to my home network
- Open wireshark and listen to wlan1
- I only see Broadcast ARP requests and traffic from my machine
I'm not sure what it's problem is.
