You are probably doing something stupid but its impossible to figure out when all you give us is a picture of a blank capture.

how about some info bruh? What card are you using, did you check it for injection, did you put the damn thing in monitor mode, what command did you run?

Try this:

ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
airmon-ng start wlan0

airmon-ng check, and kill the processors that are interfering

If it don't work, try

ifconfig wlan0 down
macchanger -r wlan0
ifconfig wlan0 up
airmon-ng start wlan0

If this don't work too, fuck you and give us more info, bye mother fucker

For more information

I couldnt get wlan0 or wlan1 interface so I ran

ifconfig wlan0mon down

iwconfig wlan0mon mode monitor

ifconfig wlan0mon up

to get something

after running airomon-ng start wlan0mon it says monitor mode is alrealy enable so I went on went on to scan with airodump only to sit there for a hour waiting on nothing

apt-get update aircrack-ng

You are using kali 1.1 or 2.0? If is 1.1, did you update it? Maybe is something in your card, try a airmon-ng check kill, airmon-ng stop wlan0mon and then wlan0mon up again. If it doesn't work then maybe the problem is your wireless card that you still didn't told us which is

From here do a research by yourself, learn to understand things by yourself and not by others telling you.

IS YOUR CARD CAPABLE OF INJECTION  ?

[Diemecry]

yep 100% sure it is thats why I couldnt get what the fuck is going on

[0pt1musPr1m3]

If thats the case then you have driver issues but I doubt it. If you want help try it again from scratch and give us a list of commands you run with the output. screenshots are helpful

You are doing something wrong like scanning with the wrong iface, but no one can help you without more info


wtf do you mean you couldn't get wlan0 or wlan1?  Show the output of airmon-ng

Hi. Something you can also try is:

airmon-ng check

then kill all interfering processes

kill 747 (process number)

then

airmon-ng start wlan1

ifconfig wlan1mon down
iwconfig wlan1mon mode monitor
ifconfig wlan1mon up

This ensures that your card is infact in monitor mode. I had this problem some time ago. Hope this helps.
