Enabling monitor mode
Ways to prepare for receiving & sending data
For DroneBridge to work the WiFi adapter must be in monitor mode. You can set the cards to monitor mode using the following bash script (root privileges required):
interface='yourinterfacename'ip link set $interface downiw dev $interface set type managedip link set $interface upiw dev $interface set bitrates legacy-2.4 54ip link set $interface downiw dev $interface set type monitorip link set $interface upiw dev $interface set freq 2472echo $interfaceiwconfig
In DroneBridge the script /startup/init_wifi.py is used to setup the cards. You may want to use it.
