Just as a matter of interest, if you type ifconfig does wlan0 show up?

airodump-ng on the N800 is a little flakey anyway - I think because of driver issues you tend to get phantom APs as well as real ones showing up, and it will sometimes misdiagnose WEP protected APs as WPA2 etc etc. I don't know if the same is true on a N770
Hey Mfresh, I too am having the same problem getting airodump-ng to work. Gaining root is no problem, and I have tried a number of airodump commands all which return the same error... "Can't find wireless tools, exiting." And if I just type airodump-ng wlan0 I get the same command list that opiorn gets.

Soo.... i tried the ifconfig and wlan is nowhere to be found. just lo. Any ideas? PS, thanks for your help.
