following these steps after you have done your airmoning
this should remove your mon0 interface (without bringing interfaces down)
Code:
airmon-ng stop mon0
Interface Chipset Driver
mon0 Atheros AR9271 ath9k - [phy0] (removed)
wlan0 Atheros AR9271 ath9k - [phy0]
also check with iwfconfig if it has been removed:
Code:
iwconfig
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
if you want you network working properly after airmoning:
Code:
service network-manager start
dhclient <interface> example: wlan0
hope this helps!
