wireless device not getting PHY address

I have the TP-Link TL-WN822N v. C (Realtek chipset) wireless adapter, and I am running Kali Linux from a live CD. After many hours of trying to get around these problematic drivers, I managed to get them to work. ### Issues - So now I can connect to the internet, but when I run the airmon-ng command the interface of the adapter does not show up. - When I run the airmon-zc command I get the interface as wlan1 but the PHY field is null so I can't get a monitor interface with airmon-ng start wlan1 command. Any suggestions on how I can assign it manually maybe?

MT7601U Adapter in Linux - Monitor Mode Enabled, but Unable to Capture Handshake or Discover Devices

I'm facing an issue with my MT7601U network adapter on Linux. Although I've successfully entered monitor mode, I'm encountering difficulties capturing handshakes and discovering devices in the network/s. Strangely, only WPS attacks seem to work reliably. Here are the key details: - **Adapter:** Ralink MT7601U - **Distribution:** parrotOS 6.0 (lorikeet) 64-bit Kernel 6.8.0-xxxxx - **Problem Summary:** - Monitor mode is enabled. - Unable to capture handshakes or detect devices in the network, except for WPS attacks which is very different kind of wifi attack. - **Attempts to Resolve:** - Successfully entered monitor mode using the iw command (sudo iw dev set monitor control). - Tried various tools like Aircrack-ng, Wireshark, and tcpdump for packet capture, but no success in capturing handshakes. - Even after ensuring monitor mode is active, no devices are being discovered in the network, except during WPS attacks. - **Observations:** - Checked system logs (dmesg, /var/log/syslog) but found no relevant error messages. - Updated drivers through the package manager and also tried downloading from the manufacturer's website, but the issue persists. I'm reaching out to the community for guidance on troubleshooting steps or potential solutions to this problem. Any advice or insights from users familiar with the MT7601U adapter or similar issues with other adapters would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance!

Hello I am on Ubuntu and I have a problem with the aireplay-ng command: When i do the command
-ng -0 0 -a $bssid -c $targetid wlp3s0
in the terminal I have the error message 'resource or device busy' and my computer crash so I have to force it to shutdown. Even if I try with a bssid or a target id which doesn't exist I have this result. I have the same when I try
-ng start wlp3s0
so I think it's because of my interface but I searched and I can't find anything that can help me

wlan0 isn't working most of times
I earlier asked a question [Wifi isnt working after using wifite [duplicate]](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/640890/wifi-isnt-working-after-using-wifite). [This](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/435060/449077) and [this answer](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/307784/449077) helped me. But...
I earlier asked a question [Wifi isnt working after using wifite [duplicate]](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/640890/wifi-isnt-working-after-using-wifite) . [This](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/435060/449077) and [this answer](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/307784/449077) helped me. But, the problem is it works but, after few hours later when I start my laptop I get the same issue. enter image description here I faces the [issue](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/640890/wifi-isnt-working-after-using-wifite) whenever I run codes on the picture. Then, reboot my laptop everything works fine. I am unable to fix the issue permanently. I didn't use wifite after facing the [issue that moment](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/640890/wifi-isnt-working-after-using-wifite) sudo airmon-ng check kill Output : Killing these processes PID Name 1394 wpa_supplicant sudo service NetworkManager restart sudo ifconfig wlan0 up Output : wlan0 : Error while getting interface flags : No such device sudo iwconfig wlan0 down Output : wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags:No such device sudo ifconfig wlan0 up Output : wlan0 : ERROR while getting interface flags:No such device sudo aireplay-ng wlan0 Output : Please specify an attack mode. "aireplay-ng --help" for help I was trying to set wlan0 up. But, there was no wlan0 when I run ifconfig. When I restarted after running those commands. wlan0 was working correctly but, I have faced the multiple times. After running wifite few days ago. Even I have faced the issue again now... I think wifite status is keep running or something else is happening to it. iwconfig > lo no wireless extensions. > >eth0 no wireless extensions. > >wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:off/any > Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=15 dBm > Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off > Power Management:off > >wwan0 no wireless extensions. > >docker0 no wireless extensions. ifconfig >docker0: flags=4099 mtu 1500 > inet 172.17.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0 broadcast 172.17.255.255 > ether 02:42:7d:19:b4:b6 txqueuelen 0 (Ethernet) > RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) > RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 > TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) > TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 > >eth0: flags=4099 mtu 1500 > ether f0:de:f1:da:7d:80 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) > RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) > RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 > TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) > TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 > device interrupt 20 memory 0xf2500000-f2520000 > >lo: flags=73 mtu 65536 > inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 > inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10 > loop txqueuelen 1000 (Local Loopback) > RX packets 28 bytes 1728 (1.6 KiB) > RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 > TX packets 28 bytes 1728 (1.6 KiB) > TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0

"airmon-ng start wlan0" not working
I have a major problem on my Nethunter.

I have a major problem on my Nethunter. Whenever I try to run "airmon-ng start wlan0" or "airmon-ng check kill" this happens; ~~~lang-text Error: /proc must be mounted To mount /proc at boot you need an /etc/fstab line like: proc /proc proc defaults In the meantime, run "mount proc /proc -t proc" Requested device "wlan0" does not exist. Run /usr/sbin/airmon-ng without any arguments to see available interfaces ~~~ Edit: "airmon-ng" working properly. I can see the interfaces. I searched a lot and... Nothing. Im stuck with this problem. I already saw a lot questions as same as mine but answers was outdated. Edit: the output of sudo ls -la /proc

I'm running Fedora 31 Security Lab updated to the latest on Acer, with wireless driver ath10k_pci. The case is is that when i run airmon-ng there are no captured packets. Does the hardware is problematic or the driver? I've stopped the Network Manager , then ran airmon-ng check kill and then airmon-ng it shows that wlp3s0mon is started but nothing captured. Also tried without airmon. Checked iwlist and it does not show monitor but when i run iwconfig wlp3s0 mode monitor and check again with iwconfig it shows Mode:Monitor but still no captured packets. No errors in dmesg, rfkill is 'unblocked' and the adapter is detected and properly running when not in Monitor. I`ve read in the Qualcom's forum that QCA9377 can't operate in monitor but I was not sure because of the driver or the hardware.

Your kernel has module support but you don't have modprobe installed.
It is highly recommended to install modprobe (typically from kmod).

command and manually. Both methods didn't work. My monitor interface: wlan0 When I tried to catch a handshake using the

command, the program showed the message: *fixed channel wlan0: -1* I can enter the --ig flag in
-ng
, but, in this case, the
-ng
comand won't work for me. The comand:

airmong-ng is not found

Method 1: Airmon-ng - (don't work)

airmon-ng check kill
airmon-ng start wlan0

- Make wlan0mon, everything looks fine, but after some time (around 50 seconds) using some tools like airgeddon or airlay-ng, my Raspberry start lagging. For example if I type iwconfig I must wait 6 seconds to show respond from Raspberry and tools stopped working when I try to stop wlan0mon or start Network Manager it also doesn't work. When I type top, there isn't any high recourse process what can cause lagging.
enter image description here

Method 2: Iwconfig - (don't work)

ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
- Normally change to monitor mode, but when I try some tools like airgeddon or airplay-ng it says some errors and I can't use them.
enter image description here

Info

enter image description here - I tried reinstall whole Kali Linux
- Reinstall firmware: apt install --reinstall kalipi-re4son-firmware
- apt-get update
- apt-get full-upgrade
- apt install -y kali-linux-large

Is it some software issue or hardware issue or do I need to buy some Wi-Fi adapter?
Thanks for answering, any help is really appreciated, I'm just beginner with Kali Linux and Raspberry.

I've seen a lot of tutorials on how to crack a WPA/WPA2 Network using Reaver or Aircrack-Ng on Kali Linux. However, neither of these tools work for me. With Reaver, after it switches to the correct channel (after a decent amount of time switching between channels), it just freezes and doesn't output anything, even with -vv as an option. With the Aircrack-Ng method, I never see a WPA handshake after sending a deauth package. If this isn't the right place to ask about this, where should I ask for help on this? If this is the right place, what can I do about this? Here is a picture from my iPhone that shows what pops up in my virtual console 1 after booting up. Everything above the part for entering the login shows up during boot, everything after that shows up after boot. Picture of Virtual Console 1 After Booting I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but it may. Regardless, does this pose any problem for my Kali Linux? I am running Kali Linux ***2.0*** on an ext4 partition. If the installation process of Kali Linux makes a difference, it is contained in my post here: [Warning while Booting into Ubuntu](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/237072/warning-while-booting-into-ubuntu) . This post of mine contains the warnings I get while booting into Ubuntu, which are similar to that of booting into Kali Linux. So I guess I have two questions: 1. Where can I get help using tools like Reaver or Aircrack-ng? 2. Are the warnings in the image anything I need to worry about? EDIT: Here is information requested about the errors: For the ext4 one, my installation completed successfully. It ended saying that I could reboot into Kali now. However, if you look in the link I provided, it shows about my installation procedure, and there were some parts that I believe were not that significant that I could not see any options for, as part of the installer was cut off on my display, but I'm not sure if that was the problem. My Wifi connection works fine, as I am posting from Kali Linux. However, I can just try sudo apt-get if I must. I don't know what the name is for the iwlwifi firmware. I just tried running the command regarding the openvas-scanner, and then with the -l option, which it said to show extra information, and this is the output: sudo systemctl status openvas-scanner.service -l ● openvas-scanner.service - Open Vulnerability Assessment System Scanner Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/openvas-scanner.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2015-10-18 20:08:25 PDT; 21h ago Docs: man:openvassd(8) http://www.openvas.org/ Process: 742 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/openvassd --listen=127.0.0.1 --port=9391 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Oct 18 20:08:25 kali systemdReferenced image: openvas-scanner.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1 Oct 18 20:08:25 kali systemdReferenced image: Failed to start Open Vulnerability Assessment System Scanner Daemon.

with channels switching, i have tried using 1 specific channel yet i found not ports with this solution either. I have also noticed some error messages when i boot linux related to the network driver:
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin (-2)
firmware_class: See http://wiki.debian.org/Firmware  for information about missing firmware
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10k/cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin(-2)
ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed to load ath10/QCA9377/hw1.0/firmware-6.bin (-2)
I also confirmed that my network adapter supports monitor mode using iw list and monitor mode appears in the list:
Supported interface modes:
		 * IBSS
		 * managed
		 * AP
		 * monitor
		 * mesh point
		 * P2P-client
		 * P2P-GO
		 * P2P-device
