The difference between 11 and 13 channels depends on your CRDA settings. Do you 
have that package installed? Check the output of dmesg to see what domain is 
being set. If you have CRDA installed, then you can force the use of Germany in 
the domain by creating a file named /etc/modprobe.d/50-cfg80211.conf containing 
a single line with "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=DE" (without the quote marks).

You can get a list of available networks using iwconfig or iw. I know those work.

As I do not test, support, nor condone packet injection, I cannot speak to it 
working on any driver.
