i know there are threads on how to fix this, but i followed then and i patched the kernel as per the instructions on
https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...rt2870-3070usb

and also on

http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compat-wireless

with the aircrack-ng instruction when i do the make wlunload i get the following error
"make: *** No rule to make target `wlunload'. Stop."

so i just skiped to the next step and it showed that everything was fine

but i still get the following message

19:44:16 Waiting for beacon frame (BSSID: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) on channel -1
19:44:16 Couldn't determine current channel for mon0, you should either force the operation with --ignore-negative-one or apply a kernel patch


it works with the --ignore-negative-one, but i thought patching will fix that

airmon-ng shows the followng driver

airmon-ng


Interface Chipset Driver

mon0 Atheros AR9462 ath9k - [phy0]
wlan0 Atheros AR9462 ath9k - [phy0]


thanks again
