I am using kernel 3.12.9 right now, I will update to 3.13.5 tonight (when I
have free download) and post if that resolves the issue.

I do not have any of these running. (I've verified in systemd and top)

I began googling for this, is there a program you recommend? I am running
Linux on the access point, and I can hook it up to a USB drive to run off
of.

I found Wireshark, but it seems very big. Also found tcpdump, aircrack-ng,
... But there seems like a lot of overhead in figuring this out. Some of
what I was reading made it seem I needed to just put the interfaces on the
AP into monitor mode?

Also, there seem to be Management, Control, Data frames. Do I want to
capture all of them?

Sorry for needing more specifics, thanks for the help!
