I could just be forgetting a step, but I haven't found an answer through any other questions I received my alfa AWUS036NEH from Hakshop about a week ago. I installed Kali in a VirtualBox virtual machine and have tried using the Alfa on a few test networks. (A Linksys, an Arris, and Netgear routers) I connect the Alfa to the virtual machine and it appears in lsusb and I can see it with Airmon-ng as wlan0. Starting airmon-ng on wlan0 returns monitor mode on mon0. Airmon-ng does list three running processes as possible issues. I have stopped one at a time and then all three without any difference in the problem. I start airodump on mon0 and airodump starts cycling through channels. A minute later I receive one Base Station result with no SSID. Airodump started collecting frames, but then I realized the MAC address the Alfa's Mac address. I also tried Wireshark on that mon0. It only collected information originating from the Alfa that should be on mon0. Neither showed any evidence of the multiple networks in the same room. If pictures would be helpful, I can post those. If any specifics about the setup are needed, just tell me. I'm not sure what is needed to help.
