MONITOR MODE howto

Use these steps to enter monitor mode.

sudo airmon-ng check kill
sudo ip link set <interface> down
sudo iw dev <interface> set type monitor

Frame injection test may be performed with (after kernel v5.2 scanning is slow, run a scan or simply an airodump-ng first!)

sudo aireplay-ng -9 <interface>

wifi.powersave=0
