Hi,
up till yesterday I used BT5 or BT5 R1 (sorry, didnt check before the update). I decided to switch to BT5 R2 and installed it without any problems.
But now, when using kismet or airmon/airodump I see only a small fraction of the accesspoints I saw with the version I had installed before.
My card is a Alfa AWUS036NH (with a 9dbi antenna) which uses rt2800usb. The regulatory bin has been expanded to include a country HX which allows up to 35 db.
Kismet says upon initialisation: "Error: Source wlan0: channel get ioctl failed 22: invalid argument" whereas airodump shows me about 5 of the formerly seen 25 ap´s.
I start airmon-ng with
I kill PID 1543 before running any other commands.Code:root@bt:~# iw reg set HX root@bt:~# iwconfig wlan0 txpower 35 root@bt:~# airmon-ng start wlan0 Found 2 processes that could cause trouble. If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after a short period of time, you may want to kill (some of) them! PID Name 961 dhclient3 1543 dhclient3 Process with PID 1543 (dhclient3) is running on interface wlan0 Interface Chipset Driver wlan0 Ralink RT2870/3070 rt2800usb - [phy0] (monitor mode enabled on mon0) root@bt:~#
Here is additional information:
BT5 R2 is runing in VirtualBox 4.1.16 with the according Guest Additions installed.

So if anybody could give me a hint what to do or google, the help would be greatly appreciated!Code:kiesel@molukkke:~$ uname -a Linux molukkke 3.0.0-20-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Tue May 1 17:24:39 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
