airmon-ng shows no interface, chipset or driver

[DaGuy88]

Hi All,

I have been reading a lot of threads on this subject, but I couldn't find one that helped me out. When I run backtrack and type in airmon-ng, i see three columns, in the order interface, chipset, and driver, but nothing under them. I am using Windows 7, and I am using a Netgear N150 Wireless USB Adapter WNA1100. I think what I need to do is somehow "turn on" the interface, which is eth0 for me, not wlan0. I also have a thing that comes up when I type in 'ifconfig' that is called lo.

Thanks!

To switch your interface on use:

#ifconfig eth0 up

But the more interesting question is, are you running BT on a VM?
If yes, check out the settings of your VM and look for virtual hardware > connectivity or similar.
