Have you attempted to reload the driver?
Also which broadcom chipset do your wireless card have, 4311, 4318, 4306 etc... ?Code:rmmod bcm43xx modprobe bcm43xx
Hello
I have startet Backtrack 3 from LIVE CD
I try to work with Airmon, Airodump and Aircrack but i have a problem.
I can't search for any AP because of the error "ioctl(SI0CSIFFLAGS): Device or Resource busy".
I attached a picture that show what i have done.

thank you for your fast answer
i have the WLAN Card
"Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI"
So.. I think I have the chipset "4311"
I will try to reload the driver
EDIT: I type in the command "iwconfig"
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSIDff/any Nickname:"Broadcom 4311"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.437 GHz Access Point: Invalid
Bit Rate=1 Mb/s

I hope this will help you.
I get the same error if i reload the driver with this commands?
Do you have some other idea to solve this problem?![]()
This sounds curious as I know for a fact that the bcm4318, which also uses the bcm43xx driver and is pretty much the same chipset as bcm4311, works out of the box on BT3F. Have you tried to connect to an AP with it or only put it in monitor mode? Also do you use any kind of hotkey to enable the card in windows, as many laptops using this card uses such a set-up?
After looking at your attached picture again I noticed that you do not bring up the card again after using macchanger, which I believe is necessary to do. The command for this is naturally:
Code:ifconfig eth1 up
-Monkeys are like nature's humans.
This is how I set up my broadcom card:
ifconfig eth1 down
iwconfig eth1 mode monitor rate 1M
macchanger --mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 eth1
ifconfig eth1 up
Is working fine and lowering the rate to 1M seems to help with packet injection.
