Hi, you're supposed to use "iw" with modern mac80211.
To spawn a real monitor interface: iw phy phy0 interface add mon0 type monitor; ifconfig mon0 up See also http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw It is certainly not required to recompile the driver. The mon.wlanX devices are cooked monitor interfaces required by hostapd to communicate with the driver. ~ Jow _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
