Hi @all,

i try to get my Prism54 card (Proxim 11b/g Gold - alias Atheros) working with airsnort. I'm current using Kernel 2.6.4-gentoo-r1 with working driver for this card. Kismet also works fine, but airsnort doesn't find the card. How can i tell airsnort to use the interface ath0 instead of eth0 and use the Prism54 kernel driver?

Thanks for help...

Greats
Werner

Try setting the card to monitor mode manually:

Code:
# iwconfig ath0 mode monitor


Then start up airsnort as root. Change the card to 'ath0' from 'eth0' and select the card type as 'other'. This works with my prism based card.
