I have kernel pcmcia orinoco-0.13e driver patched with the
orinoco-0.13e-patch.diff to provide monitor mode. My wlan card is an orinoco
gold. The patch appears successful as iwpriv indicates that monitor mode is
now available:
iwpriv eth0 results:
eth0 Available private ioctl :
force_reset (8BE0) : set 0 & get 0
card_reset (8BE1) : set 0 & get 0
set_port3 (8BE2) : set 1 int & get 0
get_port3 (8BE3) : set 0 & get 1 int
set_preamble (8BE4) : set 1 int & get 0
get_preamble (8BE5) : set 0 & get 1 int
set_ibssport (8BE6) : set 1 int & get 0
get_ibssport (8BE7) : set 0 & get 1 int
monitor (8BE8) : set 2 int & get 0
dump_recs (8BFF) : set 0 & get 0
Trying to get into monitor mode:
iwconfig eth0 mode monitor
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device eth0 ; Invalid argument.
Yet here I simply cannot get it into monitor mode. Why? What is missing
here?
