I bought an ASRock USB WiFi dongle from HAK5 recently. I'm using on my XPS13 running Ubuntu 17.04. When I plug it in and do an ifconfig it returns as wlx002522508b5d If I then try and pit it in monitor mode using sudo airmon-ng start wlx002522508b5d The device then vanishes from the ifconfig list and I get phy0 wlan0 wl Broadcom Limited BCM4352 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 03) phy6 wlx002522508b5d rt2800usb Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Interface 15mon is too long for linux so it will be renamed to the old style (wlan#) name. (mac80211 monitor mode vif enabled on [phy6]wlan1mon (mac80211 station mode vif disabled for [phy6]wlx002522508b5d) I then try sudo wash -i wlan1mon it returns wash v1.4 WiFi Protected Setup Scan Tool Copyright (c) 2011, Tactical Network Solutions, Craig Heffner <cheffner@tacnetsol.com> [X] ERROR: Failed to open 'wlan1mon' for capturing I have tried substituting wlam1mon for [phy6]wlan1mon, [phy6], [phy6]wlx002522508b5d, wlx002522508b5d and they all return the Failed to open error. Where an I going wrong please? Thanks for any help

Yes after a reboot it worked fine. Thanks for the help.

I believe I have set up my new Pineapple Nano OK. However when I try and 'Deauth' I get the error 'Please start the PineAP and try again' In the PineAP menu I have everything checked ie Allow Associations, Log Probes, Log Associations, Pineapple Daemon Enabled, Capture SSIDs to Pool, Beacon Response & Broadcast SSID Pool. What might I be doing wrong to get this error? Many thanks for any help
