Can't inject with RT73 wifi-card under BT 3 final, with BT 2 final no problem

[RT2571WF]

Hallo,

a long time, I worked with BT 2 and a RT73 card. Everything including packet injection (ARP Replay) worked fine. Today I downloaded version 3 of Backtrack. But now, I can't inject anymore with the same usb wireless stick.

Please help me to get injection support for BT 3.
Thanks for help.

get the 2.0.1 or 3.0.1 driver.

l use the 3.0.1:

wget http://homepages.tu-darmstadt.de/~p_...-3.0.1.tar.bz2
tar -xjf rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.1.tar.bz2
cd rt73-k2wrlz-3.0.1/Module
make
make install
modprobe rt73

I have posted 100 times about this problem before.always connect USB NIC after properly booting BT3 or use this if you dont want to do so
ifconfig rausb0 down
modprobe -r rt73
modprobe rt73
airodump-ng rausb0
aireplay-ng -9 rausb0
download the below mentioned driver and find my tutorial on how to enhanced the chipset capabilities and using it for WPA and WPA2 without/with using wpa_supplicant.

Micked you also want to remove previous modules first
ifconfig rausb0 down
modprobe -r rt73
then proceed with your steps.
after updating modules instead of using "modprobe rt73" use modprobe rt73 txPowerTuning=36 ifname=wlan0
#ifname is optional just for fun put any name of interface you want that is major custom tuning done by aspj in version 3.0.1

I knew this trick, because without it, the card would find no APs. But still injection did not work.
I also had compiled the 3.x version of the driver.

That did the trick. Thank you very much, injection works now.

I searched over an hour and indeed found compiling the new driver, but this only worked with the command "modprobe -r rt73" before.

I followed secure_it's advice but I keep getting this error when i type make:

make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.21.5/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
rt73.ko failed to build!
make: *** [module] Error 1

I would appreciate any help i can get. I am running backtrack on vmware workstation and I am using a hawking usb WUG1 adaptor. It has a ralink chipset.

This is probably the most asked and answered question on the forum, next time use the search function for basic questions like this.

What you need is the kernel sources, use the following commands to donwload and install them

wget http://www.offensive-security.com/kernel.lzm
lzm2dir kernel.lzm /

Thanks Tron for the help. I tried searching the forum for help, but I am a newb at Backtrack. I have worked with fedora and ubuntu before though. I just didn't know what to search.
Anyway thanks for the help.

I read this somewhere else, but I fixed my injection problem by using this code:

iwconfig rausb0 rate 1M

It works everytime for me. I get about 300 #data per second from my neighbors router!
