Is your card even supported by it?


Quote:
AirSnort 0.2.3a Requirements

AirSnort runs under linux, and reqires that your wireless nic be capable of rf monitor mode, and that it pass monitor mode packets up via the PF_PACKET interface. Cards known to do this are:

Cisco Aironet
Prism2 based cards using wlan-ng drivers
Orinoco cards and clones using patched orinoco_cs drivers
