Summary	0009268: airodump-ng not finding any access point raspberry pi
Description	I have a Raspberry Pi 3B and Raspberry Pi 5, both with kali 2025.2 installed. I need to use them to monitor traffic, so I tried to use airodump-ng to find access points, but I get no results. In the guide https://www.kali.org/blog/raspberry-pi-wi-fi-glow-up/ they are stated as compatible with this type of operation, thanks to the nexmon project. The packages listed in the guide are already installed in my devices. These are the commands I've been running (as root): airmon-ng check kill airmon-ng start wlan0 iwconfig (which lists wlan0mon as Mode:Monitor) airodump-ng wlan0mon This last command does not show any result, even if there are a lot of APs with ongoing traffic around me.
