Unable to capture authentication frames in monitor mode in linux using Wireshark. I am able to see probe request & response, Acknowledgement, Beacon, cts, rts frames.
Followed below steps and also using airmon-ng but after enabling monitor mode network manager is missing from the task bar but I wanted to connect to my access point in monitor mode to capture authentication frames. Kindly help
Check monitor mode support:
sudo iw list | grep -A 10 “Supported interface modes
Enable monitor mode:
sudo ip link set wlan0 down
sudo iw dev wlan0 set type monitor
sudo ip link set wlan0 up
Stop monitor mode and reconnect to Wi-Fi:
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down
sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
Tried capturing using airmon-ng, airodump-ng, virtual interface but was not successful in capturing authentication frames
