    How can I re-enable managed mode after monitor mode??

    So of course I use airmon-ng to enter monitor mode. I kill the processes that might interrupt (the ALFA works much better without them).
    I get a handshake. Then I cannot figure out how to start using ethernet or either of the wireless cards again.
    I have tried: ifconfig wlan0 up, iwconfig wlan0 mode managed, and a few other similar simple commands.

    Could someone please tell me how to access the internet again after using monitor mode and killing those processes?

    It should be as simple as killing the monitor interface with
    Code:
    airmon-ng stop mon0
    and re-starting the services you killed such as DHCP
    Code:
    dhclient wlan0
    OSCP

    If it smells like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck; then it probably is a duck.

    Try

    ifconfig wlan0 down
    iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
    ifconfig wlan0 up

    alternatively

    ifconfig wlan0 down
    iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
    ifconfig wlan0 up
