Hello fellas.
So, I updated BT5 to BT5 r1 and now airodump-ng stopped showing signal strength using zd1211rw chipset wifi adapter, rtl8187 works fine.
rtl8187 is wlan0 is mon0
zd1211rw is wlan1 is mon0

Now, let's scan some APsCode:Interface Chipset Driver wlan0 Realtek RTL8187L rtl8187 - [phy0] wlan1 Zydas zd1211b zd1211rw - [phy1] (monitor mode enabled on mon1) mon0 Realtek RTL8187L rtl8187 - [phy0]

Now, let's use zd1211 adapter

I really need to zd1211 work, becouse it's my main adapter and it has antenna, so it works better than rtl8187.
How to fix it?
Also, how do I change the way he's showing signal strength, from -36% to 64%?
I've tried to download zd1211 driver and install it manually, doesn't help. In fact, drivers were the same, byte to byte.
Who's not doing he's job, is it aircrack-ng fail?
