How to get bettercap to recognize my wifi adapter?

[Joeneedshelp1]

  So I am having the problem of having bettercap recognize my wireless adapter in Parrot and in Kali.  Does anyone else have this issue?  I am using a wifi adapter that supports monitor mode and packet injection.  I have no problem putting it into monitor mode not in bettercap, however in bettercap it will not work.  I get the following error:

wlan1  » wifi.recon on

   I don't understand what is going on, tried wifi.show command and thats all it responded with.  Anyone have any suggestions?

What wireless adapter are you using? Are you sure you have "killed" any other process(es) that might be active binding that adapter in monitor mode? Then you need to put it in monitor mode so that bettercap can use it (something like wlan1mon using airmon-ng).

You could also check the libpcap version used. There has been some rather recent reports on possible bugs that might result in issues like the ones you face.

I am using an ALFA ar9271 atheros i believe.  I didn't try killing all processes that might interfere.  I'll give that a try next time I try it.
