Hello I want to catch probe requests from nearby mobile devices. I search examples. But I have some questions. 1) Can I use my own computer's wi-fi device (intel dual band wireless-ac 3165) for catching probe requests? I try this with wireshark but it is show me only packages between network and my computer. 2) I have this usb adapter. If I use this device with wireshark can I catch probe requests without any network? Everytime I try use wireshark for catching packages it shows me only between network and my computer. I use Ubuntu 16.04 and Wireshark 2.2.3. asked 01 Jul '17, 16:29  bk52 |
One Answer:
Most likely the WiFi adapter is not set to monitor mode. Please read the following wiki, particularly the difference between promiscuous and monitor mode: answered 01 Jul '17, 21:28  Amato_C |
