Here’s how I got Kismet running on Ubuntu on my Asus W3V laptop.
- Open up a Terminal: Applications > Accessories > Terminal``
sudo apt-get install kismet
sudo gedit /etc/kismet/kismet.conf
- Change
<br /> source=none,none,addme
to
source=ipw2200,eth1,wifi
</p>- If you don’t know your relevant network driver, view the Kismet Readme and scroll down to the section “12. Capture Sources”. My driver is ipw2200.
- If you don’t know your interface name, use
iwconfig
to find your wireless interface (mine is eth1). [screenshot]
- Save the file
sudo kismet
