I can't get that to work. I get: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
# airmon-ng start wlan0 |
| 19 |
Interface Chipset Driver |
| 20 |
wlan3 ath5k_pci - [phy0] |
| 21 |
wlan0 Ralink 2573 USB rt73usb - [phy1]/usr/sbin/airmon-ng: line 338: |
| 22 |
/sys/class/ieee80211/phy1/add_iface: No such file or directory |
| 23 |
mon0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device |
| 24 |
(monitor mode enabled on mon0) |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
It looks like I'm supposed to have /sys/class/ieee80211/phy1/add_iface |
| 27 |
which isn't there. I've tried with net.wlan0 started and stopped. |
