Problem with monitor mode interface on kali linux 2020 - augustcvz - May 28, 2020

I'm trying to get a wlan0mon interface but it's not working for me. I can get it into monitor mode but I can't get a different interface when I do airmon-ng start wlan0 like other people in tutorials do. For them it switches to wlan0mon, but not for me. I can't post images or links which sucks but basically says mac80211 monitor mode for wlan0 already enabled for [phy0]10)
and iwconfig shows me just a wlan0 interface.


really stuck here lol, thank you in advance!

Which Wifi adapter are you using?

Kali supports only limited adapter
Due to many adapter has lack of monitor mode and can you check the wireless adapter is supported by aircrack-ng

yah wifi adapter not supporting monitor mode :) change wifi card of you device

Chipsets I recommend AR9271 , RT 3070 , RT 5572 , RTL8812AU , RTL8814AU

An adapter that I picked up for this exact purpose due to airmon not working properly is the ALFA AWUS036NEH
