I have a usb wifi adapter:

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter

I start it in monitor mode like this:

airmon-ng start wlan1

And it says monitor mode was enabled [supposedly in wlan1]

So I do a test:

aireplay-ng -9 wlan1

But it says it found 0 APs. I tried compat-wireless, downloaded it and then compiled. And rmmoded the rt2800 modules, then tried to insert rt2800usb.ko, and it said something about unknown symbols, or something like that.

    Are you sure the monitor mode is not enabled in mon0? try entering the command as aireplay-ng -9 mon0. The output of airmon-ng should indicate in what interface the monitor mode was enabled

  • I'm almost positive. It said "monitor mode enabled on wlan0", not mon0. It stuck out to me because I'd always have mon0 in the past [with my other zd1211rw usb wifi adapter]

First try to install bt5 R1 which has all the wireless drivers patched and check then with (double check if you have any AP in your range):

aireplay-ng -9 wlan1

If it displays 0 AP, then read from rt2870 and then on the forums.

Note: aircrack works for 100% on WEP but with WPA/WPA2 only with a dictionary which is a waste of time IMHO.

Goto official site, and check for your adapter. There may be some patches for it. Otherwise you won't be able to run it
