I have Vim4 with ubuntu 22.04, I want to activate the monitor mode on the on-board WiFi card, but after running the command “sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor” I get the error “Error for wireless request “Set Mode” (8B06): SET failed on device wlan0; Invalid argument”.
If I want to check the currently used driver/firmware using the command “sudo lshw -c network” I don’t get the driver or firmware version, what I get is like “… driver=wl driverversion=0 …”
Even the command “lspci | grep -i wireless” doesn’t show anything.
I think it is a firmware issue but I don’t know how to fix it. I think I found the needed firmware in the following link but not sure how to fix the issue using it.
The on-board wifi card is AP6275S Wi-Fi 6 Module
Any help is really appreciated, and thank you very much.
Hello @numbqq thank you for your reply, I tried your solution, but when I run the command “sudo ./dhd_priv monitor 1” I get the error: “dhd_priv(2.4): failed to send cmd at wlan0 with error -1”
I also checked the command that I mentioned in my original post and still getting the same results!
