This is an informative post:
When using airmong-ng with mt76x2u NiCs it causes the live OS to crash. I have found an alternative setup so I wanted to share with those who might be running into the same problem

  • sudo ip link set wlan0 down
  • sudo iw wlan0 set monitor control
  • sudo ip link set wlan0 name wlan0mon
  • sudo ip link set wlan0mon up

Then if you are using 5Ghz do the following

  • iwconfig wlan0mon freq 5.220G
  • iwconfig wlan0mon channel 44
  • You will also want to set your AP's 5Ghz SSID to use channel 44 (5.220G freq)
