Forum Thread: Problems with Aircrack-Ng

root@kali:~# airmon-ng start wlan0
No interfering processes found
PHY Interface Driver Chipset

null wlan0 r8188eu Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188EUS 802.11n Wireless Network Adapter

root@kali:~# airodump-ng wlan0
ioctl(SIOCSIWMODE) failed: Invalid argument

ARP linktype is set to 1 (Ethernet) - expected ARPHRDIEEE80211,
ARPHRD
IEEE80211FULL or ARPHRDIEEE80211PRISM instead. Make
sure RFMON is enabled: run 'airmon-ng start wlan0 <#>'
Sysfs injection support was not found either.

So basically I can't do anything ..

The error message literally tells you everything you need to know, read it.

You've entered the wrong command. Read over everything you've done step by step, checking the commands and comparing them to the guide. You'll be able to see the problem quite easily.
