Monitor mode help?

Recommended Posts

I am trying to figure out how to get my nano into monitor mode so I can capture a simple handshake.

I booted up the Nano and SSH'd into it.

From here, I ran: 

airmon-ng start wlan1

The result I got back was:

If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to kill (some of) them!

From everything I have seen and read with these tutorials, I expected to see something about mon0 as the interface being setup and running in monitor mode.

As a test, I tried to run wash -i wlan1mon and didn't see any activity. I tried to run this same command on all of the above returned devices.

What am I doing wrong?

So this might sound basic but make sure that nothing is auto starting and reboot the device and try again.  That command should put wlan1 in monitor mode and be wlan1mon.
