I've seen this question a few times before but none of the posted solutions solved my issue. I can see Probes, Beacons, Acknowledgements, Request-to-sends, Clear-to-sends, and null data frames but not any non-null data.
I am running Wireshark on Kali Linux attempting to sniff wireless traffic. I have the following set up:
Capture Device:
Kali Linux LiveBoot USB
OS: Kali 2020.3 - SMP Debian 5.5.17-1 kali1 (2020-04-21) x86_64
NIC: Panda PAU09-RaLink RT5572 - Driver: rt2800usb as wlan0
Wireshark 3.2.3
AP - Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspbian
I configured HostAPD to use my Raspberry Pi as an access point. It is set to run 802.11g with no security. The set up on my sniffing system has been:
ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 mode Monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up
Start wireshark, check the monitor mode checkbox, restart wireshark, and then begin capture. On the client Pi I am connected to the AP and running a script that periodically curls the Apache server on the AP.
Debugging done so far:
- Use Ubuntu instead of Kali
- Create wlan0mon interface with airmon-ng and listen on that instead
- Connect to AP after putting device into Monitor mode
- Tried different target devices (Iphone, Windows 10 Desktop)
- Adjusted channel settings through Wireshark's wireless toolbar to match the channel my AP is broadcasting on (7)
- Tried different AP (my home router rather than one I configured myself) and done basic web browsing
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated, I am not sure why this isn't working.
