I needed support for new hardware so I've compiled a new kernel version (3.10.12). I've used the config from old kernel version and set up new kernel modules (mostly default). After recompiling the kernel and installing it the monitor mode stopped returning packets that I got before. I can see only Beacons, Probe Requests and Probe Responses now (no Data packets etc...). The monitor mode is created with airmon-ng start wlan0 (I know there is already mon.wlan0 at start but I need also the extra headers which the airmon-ng enables). Anyway - on both interfaces (mon.wlan0 and mon0) I don't see the required packets anymore. The WiFi cards I tried are based on Atheros 2413 (ath5k) or Prism (p54pci) chipsets. Both worked before upgrade, none of them works after upgrade. Any ideas what have changed ? Maybe I've chosen wrong option in case of one of the new kernel modules/options ? Regards, Piotr
