airmon airidump cisco 340

[insurin]

I have had this working in the past on my laptop with an atheros based card, I am using Cisco this time

I have

eth0 (my wifi cisco aironet 340 pci)
eth1 (wired lan connection)
wifi0 (my wifi cisco aironet 340 pci)

I have been following exploitz video which I have used successfully in the past.

I have been doing the following

bt ~ # airmon-ng stop eth0
Interface Chipset Driver
eth0 UNKNOWN airo (monitor mode disabled)


bt ~ # airmon-ng start wifi0
Interface Chipset Driver
eth0 UNKNOWN airo


bt ~ # airodump-ng wifi0

CH 7 ][ Elapsed: 1 min ][ 2008-07-21 12:49 ][ wifi0 reset to monitor mode

I have been trying different variants of airmon-ng, i.e. airmon-ng eth0. I only get 'monitor mode enabled/disabled' when doing airmon-ng eth0 instead if wifi0.

Results from airodump-ng wifi0 states [wifi0 reset to monitor mode],

help appreciated

Try this....

iwconfig eth0 mode monitor

[insurin]

Try this....

iwconfig eth0 mode monitor

I have tried that and although it takes the command, upon doing a iwconfig the mode indicates it is still set to managed.

Forgive me if this sounds stupid but when I do a iwconfig my essid is set to 'tsuami' is this a default essid built into the iso or have I picked up a local wifi
