Thanks a lot, Emmanuel. My iw binary that came default with my Ubuntu distribution was very old (3.4) and it didn't have support for channel bonding larger than 40Mhz. I compiled the latest iw version from sources then I took the center_freq1 from the beacon advertised by the AP. That's because the iw dev on a device associated to the same AP gave me the control frequency. After that, I was able to capture the data frames. One more question that I promise to be the last one: - I am trying to capture the Wi-Fi Direct traffic between two smartphones: iw shows me that the p2p interface from one of the smartphones uses 2.4Ghz, channel 1 so I set the monitor interface on 2.4, channel 1. The problem is that, again, I can't see the data frames. Instead, I can see the Association/Authentication Request, RTS/CTS, Block ACK (I attached the Wireshark capture at [1]). Analyzing the capture, I noticed that the HT capabilities advertised in the beacon frames indicates 802.11n D1.10. Does this trigger any indication for you on how to setup the monitor interface?
