There is also a terminal-based (non-GUI) version called TShark. Wireshark is cross-platform, using the GTK+ widget toolkit in current releases, and Qt in the development version, to implement its user interface, and using pcap to capture packets it runs on GNU/Linux, OS X, BSD, Solaris, some other Unix-like operating systems, and Microsoft Windows. Originally named Ethereal, in May 2006 the project was renamed Wireshark due to trademark issues. It is used for network troubleshooting, analysis, software and communications protocol development, and education. I'll circle back to this eventually.Wireshark is a free and open-source packet analyzer. Right now, I've got 12 hours into it and still haven't even copied any of my project files onto it, I really just need to go back to getting it running, running the fan, etc. I'll do a full wipe/format/re-image and try again sometime. I likely just screwed something up writing the new image I verified the checksum of the download, so it could just be a bad sd card or something like that. I am 100% certain I never went through any of those steps in the past. That seems to be the most popular result. I'll follow the guide on v, git cloning the project at github/seemoo-lab/nexmon.git. Apparently I'm getting old I honestly do not remember ever having to do this before.

Thank you for the suggestion I did some reading and it appears that is what it will take. You need to reapply the Nexmon patch to enable monitor mode every time the WiFi firmware or kernel is changed/upgraded.


My pi 4B' on-board broadcom 43430 worked in monitor mode with no trouble at all until a few days ago I did a sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade, which (for the 3rd time in 3 months) rebooted to a blank sd card.
