    Help : Monitor mode only detects my own AP

    Hi guys,
    For 2 days I've been looking for a solution to this issue:

    My AWUS036NHR has been working in monitor mode for over a week, detecting several APs with airodump-ng, wifite, fern-crack, etc
    But suddenly in only detects my own AP, it seems to be locked if that somehow makes sense.

    Other device like AWUS036H which I alternative used during these 2 weeks of practices is still working as before, scanning and detecting all surrounded APs.

    - Tried several fixes and related solutions on the net.
    - Tried on Virtual Machine Kali installation.
    - Tried fresh Kali HDD install.

    No luck after all, I'm just starting to think is broken, from one day to another burnt...

    Thoughts?
    Did you ever come across with anything like this?

    Thanks for reading.

    Have you tried " airmon-ng check kill " - just to make sure there are no interference from any process...
    Then start monitor mode " airmon-ng start <wlan1, wlan2, etc..> "
    Next start " airodump-ng --wps --manufacturer -a wlan1mon " or whatever interface you are using...

    Hope this helps..
