I removed some of the output but you get the point, my "PWR" is low the first listing is my router. It's no more than three feet away. The third is almost a quarter of a mile away. My system is updated, I have put it in monitor mode. I increased the power to thirty manually. I killed the tasks in the proper order. It's using an after market antenna. I'm using USB 2.0, what am I doing wrong please help me. I also ordered the "16 dBi high gain directional 2.4 GHz SMA Yagi antenna" it's almost here.

RSSI follows a -XX pattern. The closer to 0 the better. It is perfectly normal. http://www.metageek.com/training/res...ding-rssi.html
