Having put this project aside for a while I picked it up again after receiving a comment on a previous post. With a little help from the developer Hirte at aircrack my wifi-hacking setup is finally complete. It now works exactly the way I was hoping to get it running even when my MAC address is changed. The last parts were resolved by changing back to the r8187 driver which is available from the aircrack-ng web page here. In order to get rid of the annoying “SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (304) len=226, sizeof(sk_buff)=176″ I made some adjustments to my syslog-ng configuration as suggested on their web page.
When running with a different MAC address, the address should be changed both using ifconfig and then set as parameter when starting airbase-ng with the -a switch. Thanks again Hirte!
