Hi good morning
my name is warren i have been going through your course network hacking from scratch and all was well until i reached lesson 5.4 and 5.5
.
When i do a fakeauth it keeps returning “No such BSSID” available and i have to keep running the command over and over then eventually i will succeed. Is this normal??

Secondly when i do run a arpreplay after a while it stops sending the ARP packets and if i get a deauth packet received if i try to re-associate with the ap
I use both versions of kali linux 2019.4 and 2020.1. I get the above issues on both builds

My network adapter is Alpha AWUS036ACH

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Hi Warren,

To fix this just run the fake authentication WHILE airodump-ng is running against the target network as shown in the course, so run airodump-ng using the –channel and –bssid arguments against the target network, keep it running, and run the fake authentication from another terminal window.

For the ARP replay injection, try to re-enable monitor mode again:

ifconfig wlan0 down
airmon-ng check kill
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up

Make sure that you’re on the right frequency band since the AWUS036ACH supports two bands:

airodump-ng wlan0
airodump-ng –band abg wlan0 (For 2.4 & 5Ghz networks)
airodump-ng –band a wlan0 (Only for 5Ghz networks)

In addition, try the following when you connect the adapter before you enable monitor mode:
– Experiment with connecting the adapter before and after Kali fully loads, and after you log in as root.
– Experiment with setting the adapter to use USB 2.0 and 3.0 in Kali system settings in Vbox.
– Make sure you connect the adapter directly to the computer, don’t use a hub or an extension.
– And experiment with connecting the adapter to different USB ports.

Last but not least, try to enable monitor using another method:
