Hi The madwifi-20030802 does not have monitor mode. Get the code from the = CVS tree instead. The instructions are as follows: 1. cvs -d :pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/madwifi login When it prompts for the password hit return. If the above command = does not succeed after several retries, try sometime later since the server could be = overloaded =20 2. cvs -d :pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/madwifi co = madwifi =20 This creates a directory madwifi. cd to that directory and do a 'make' = followed by 'make install'. Load this driver and then do monitoring as follows: =20 ifconfig ath0 up iwpriv ath0 mode ? -->In place of '?' type 1 for .a , 2 for .b and 3 for .g . I have tried = .a and .g and it works. iwconfig ath0 mode Monitor =20 If you want to monitor a different channel do iwconfig ath0 channel X X is 36,40,...,64 for .a and 1 thru 11 for .b/.g =20 Then run ethereal (with the prism header patch) or tcpdump to monitor = packets. =20 Cheers -gopal -----Original Message----- From: Rene Kupczak [mailto:ku...@se...] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2003 8:15 PM To: mad...@li...
