HI Guys I recently installed bactrack and when I was doing an airodump-ng to scan networks nothing comes up, in my phone there is like 5 APs, there has to be something wrong with the driver or somwthing, how can I install it
I type
airmon-ng start wlan0
Found 4 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
662 NetworkManager
837 wpa_supplicant
1266 dhclient3
1645 dhclient3
Process with PID 1645 (dhclient3) is running on interface wlan0
Process with PID 2003 (airodump-ng) is running on interface mon0
Process with PID 2011 (airodump-ng) is running on interface mon0
Interface Chipset Driver
wlan0 Unknown rt2800pci - [phy0]
(monitor mode enabled on mon1)
mon0 Unknown rt2800pci - [phy0]
Then
airodump-ng mon0

Reading is the first step to education, critical thinking is a whole 'nother matter
According to linux Drivers page, this is fully supported (Minitor mode, cfg82011, AP mode, etc): refer here and look for your chipset: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers
Post output of: ifconfig -a and iwconfig
Also output of: lspci | grep -i network (see the beggining of line a number, it is the PCI ID: xx:xx.x)
Then post the output of: lspci --vvs xx:x.x (at the end is the driver used by kernel...
