I know quiet well linux and decide to start with kali linux few weeks ago. So i installed it on my usb key and boot in persistence mode with it. Everything worked as i was expecting, wifi connection... But i wanted to try aircrack-ng so i began with scaning networks but it doesn't seems to work :
root@kali:~# airmon-ng
PHY Interface Driver Chipset
phy0 wlan0 ath10k_pci Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32)
root@kali:~# airmon-ng start wlan0
Found 3 processes that could cause trouble.
If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to run 'airmon-ng check kill'PID Name

As you can see airodump-ng didn't catch anything whereas monitor mode is activated.
I use my native wifi card so is it possible it is not compatible with aircrack ?
See what does return aireplay :
root@kali:~# aireplay-ng --test wlan0mon

Do you know if i have to buy a wifi usb or is it something else ?
Thanks for you help in advance

It's most probably not supported. I suggest buying wifi dongles that are Kali supported. I'm using this one:

There are much better wireless adapters out there tho. It's just that this one's the easiest for me to get a hold of.
This wifi dongle seems nice and not expensive. In addition i was looking for a wifi dongle compatible with my raspberry and it is. Thank you for your quick answer.
Yep works like a charm with Pi too! No biggie.
I just got the ALFA AWUS036NH and running into the same problem. I disabled the builtin laptop WiFi and have the Virtualbox on bridged under networking set all that stuff up.
Once in Kali I get through everything and airmon is searching but no results. This card is on their list too. However I noticed something really strange it almost seems it's using a loop back address and I think this might be the problem.
The laptop has no internet connected when I try all of this. I am wondering if Virtualbox is causing all the issues with the SDN.
hey. Did you perhaps find a fix for this? I seem to be having the same problem
I'm in the same boat Anybody ever solve this?
Hi there, i had the same issue with a Ralink RT5370 Wifi Dongle (this one: Ralink WiFi Dongle für Mag 250 254 255 260 270 275 RT5370 Chipsatz WiFi Dongle für viele Set-Top-Boxen)
I was able to use the device as Wifi-Managed mode as a normal connection and put it into monitor mode. But the test with aireplay-ng --test wlan0mon turned out the same error
I managed to fix it by following these steps:
apt update
apt install firmware-ralink
apt install iw
and run aireplay-ng --test wlan0mon again.
now it works nicely
But i am unsure if the next steps like besside-ng would work though :)
it was working fine first but after i reinstall kali,it cant find any network
I found this solution by my own, I don't know much logic behind this but YOU NEED TO CONNECT YOUR DEVICE TO DIFFERENT ROUTER/ MOBILE HOSTPOT,
sorry if want solution connecting to that same network.
I connected to Other WIFI network it works and it was giving empty output when I connected to one of my mobile hotspot.
so CONNECT YOUR WIFI ADAPTER TO DIFFERENT ROUTER / MOBILE HOTSPOT.
Does this drawing style have a name?
