Im a savage Newy Newington

[Buchus]

Hi. Firstly id like to appologise if this has been asked before (and i guess it probalby has, but i cant find it any were). Ok my problem im very new to this game as in ive downloaded the USB version got it running and such. Ive tried to follow Xploitz video on cracking WPA and also the aircrack tutorial on there website. Im using a Edimax EW7318usg and that seems to be doing ok (but what do i know :P ). OK OK ive waffled, i dont think i have the correct interfaces working. I can set the rausb0 interface to monitor mode but when i try to do what i think is searching for AP's I get nothing. When i use the command "iwconfig" I see 2 interfaces "lo" with no wireless extentions, and rausb0 which after it says the driver type, Mode, frequency, bitrate ect ect,
like this but for my specific drives i guess.

 ath0      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:""  Nickname:""
        Mode:Monitor  Frequency:2.452 GHz  Access Point: 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82   
        Bit Rate:0 kb/s   Tx-Power:18 dBm   Sensitivity=0/3  
        Retry:off   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
        Encryption key:off
        Power Management:off
        Link Quality=0/94  Signal level=-95 dBm  Noise level=-95 dBm
        Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
        Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

Im using the command "airodump-ng rausb0" and i see it seaching the channels for AP's but nothing apears. Ive also tried using the command
"airodump-ng -c (my channel) --bssid (my networks bssid) -w psk rausb0"
again i see the same as with the above comand line. I hope its not too much of a rediculus question and any help will be much apreciated. Thanks once again and i hope its not too much of a wall of text.

Would suggest you first just get airodump to work in scanning your network(s)


If rausb0 specifically is giving problems, you could try the modprobe command;

modprobe -r rt73

then bring it back

modprobe rt73

then again do

airmon-ng start rausb0

u sure u got the right drivers going for the edimax ?

It Means im a noob
I hate to sound like im being drip fed but to the "modprobe -r rt73" command i get

 Fatal: Module rt73 is in use

I belive i have the correct drivers but ill get some new ones to make sure. Thanks.

You have to shutdown your interface first e.g.

ifconfig rausb0 down
