Need help running Wifite on Parrot OS with UTM on MacBook M1 chip*
Another problem might be that M1 mavs might not (but probably is) supporting monitor mode. While wireshark is currently working on a native version it ptobably supports. But the ecosystem (M1/M2) is fairly New and might require some tweaking/configuration to enable monitor mode
- Wireshark doesn't show data as a text, just raw bytes
- Could be there two identical MAC adresses?

Hello Hello, tried to use wireshark but have a little problem
Rather than simply running Wireshark via "sudo" you should really follow the instructions described here, since doing that minimizes the number of processes running with elevated privileges, which is a good thing. There's a link on that page to specific instructions for Debian-based distros, which I'd expect to include Mint. Related to this, I'm pretty sure all the Wireshark installations I remember doing in the past few years on various Linux platforms via the appropriate package mangers have popped up a window on first launch describing the appropriate measures to take to allow non-root users to capture traffic, which were pretty much just a summary of the steps described in the second link I mentioned, but I'm not a heavy Linux user so my experience with this is a bit limited.

Need help identifying and labeling network cables
I then pasted all this into Excel and using LEFT, RIGHT I pared the information in the cell to their own cells. So now I have Interface, VLAN, MAC, and OUI columns. I then took the Wireshark database and pasted it onto a different sheet. I then used VLOOKUP and made a column where I resolved the OUI to its corresponding Vendor.

"No such devices" when trying to use NMAP with VPN
Make sure you are using the latest version of Npcap from https://npcap.org/#download first. We are working on ways to support more device types, and VPNs are high on our priority list. Depending on the type of VPN it may not support layer-2 packets, which is what Nmap uses on Windows for most raw packet features.
