I don't really want to learn all the tedious and hacky stuff I'm going to need to know to do get a card into promiscuous and monitor mode in Linux just to be able to analyze how a device is performing on a wireless network. The card is obviously capable, why not include the capability even if you aren't marketing it as a supported feature? That a later Linux driver came out supporting it does say that it can be done - without the same schedule constraints in place.
At this point, all that you can do it formally request that the capability s be added. It is best to call Intel Customer Support and get a proper ticket opened to request this. At least then you know that it will at least be considered.

In order to better assist you, please provide the following: 1. Is the Bluetooth working? Is this a laptop or desktop computer? Have you update your drivers and BIOS? We have a dedicated article on best open source network monitoring tools for Windows and Linux , do check that out. On a side note, Windows 10 and macOS are not built to be used as a network server or security analyzer.
Most Android smartphones support monitor mode right out of the box, however, you need root access and apps like zAnti or cSploit to sniff data packets on the network. Here is a good article that will get you started. So the best you can do is capturing traffic to and from yourself and not from other devices on the network.
Meanwhile, in Ubuntu, you can do an advanced level of analysis and testing by installing terminal-based networking tools like Aircrack-ng , hcxtools , etc. For more queries or issues, let me know in the comments below.

You may also like. First of all, we are going to explain what the monitor mode that some Wi-Fi cards have consists of. Also known as listening mode, it is used to capture data. Basically the card will start to capture Wi-Fi packets that are around it. You will be able to analyze the clients that are connected to a network, beyond the access point. This feature is essential to be able to perform a network audit. For example to test a WEP key. In order to use it, it is necessary to use a suite of hacking tools, such as the Kali Linux operating system, which has many programs.
Therefore, monitor mode is one of the modes in which the Wi-Fi network card can work. Of course, to use it, the card must be compatible. After explaining what the monitor mode consists of, we are going to talk about how we can know if a Wi-Fi network card is really compatible or not.
We will have to follow a series of steps, from some simple ones where we will only have to search for information on the Internet to others in which we will have to do something else on the computer.
The first and easiest thing is to know the exact chipset that the Wi-Fi network card uses. Would it be possible to help how I can start for trouble shooting? PS: here is the info I have. Npcap: 0. Add Answer.
