I’m on a MBP and have chosen the airport extreme passive mode but I can´t choose primary injection driver. Is there any way I can do that?

I want to crack a password but don’t get it to work…

OK. Update here. 5 seconds after posting I switched to active mode in prefs and it worked. I hope that has something to do with helping me in passive mode? Anyone?

I’m on a MB Core 2 duo, and when I turn off the APE card and launch KisMAC, then hit “start” I get this message:
“KisMAC was able to load the driver backend for the Airport Extreme Card, but it was unable to create an interface. Make sure your capture device is properly plugged in. If you think everything is correct, you can try to restart your computer. Maybe your console.log and system.log show more details.”

Well I restarted, and it helped nil. Also, both the .log files had nothing to speak of. I think i’m going to see if I can get it to work in active mode, but it certainly doesn’t in passive. Any ideas? Fixes?

I run a 2.2Ghz MacBook Core 2 Duo. It also says:

Could not enable Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme.
Could not load Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Drivers were not found. If you just enabled persistent passive support, you must reboot. Please note that passive mode does not work with MacBookPros and recent Mac Minis.

This seems to be the same problem as Mack and Dave.

So, when will it be available for the new MBP’s?

I am running just a macbook and it says:

“Could not enable Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme: Could not load Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Drivers were not found. If you just enabled persistent passive support, you must reboot. Please note that passive mode does not work with MacBookPros and recent Mac Minis.”

i get this message while on a four week old macbook pro

“Could not load Monitor Mode for Airport Extreme. Drivers were not found. If you just enabled persistent passive support, you must reboot. Please note that passive mode does not work with MacBookPros and recent Mac Minis.”

when i reboot, it says “the program mac osx has quit unexpectedly. send error report?”

i’ve tried everything i’ve seen on this page.

i have a MacBook Pro, and i’ve tried installing KisMac through SVN to compile the application.

However, when configured in passive mode it does not see any network,,, :(

i’ve tried following instructions from this web-page, but it does not work on my machine,,,,

Hi, for those having problem finding the driver in macbook pro, you need first to disactivate Airport, then launch kismac.
