I convinced someone with an Intel mac to give me the results of those 3 commands.

I'll get the logs on x9.ath.cx in a minute.

Here's the ioreg -l listing of the airport. (note that i removed the SSID and MAC to protect his privacy).

Now, the interesting lines are:
"CFBundleIdentifier" = "com.apple.driver.AppleAirPortBrcm4311"

It's not com.apple.AppleAirPort2 any more, so update the scripts.

"APMonitorMode" = No

Theoretically, this would mean that if we reload it with this changed, it CAN do monitor mode!

"IOModel" = "Wireless Network Adapter (802.11 a/b/g)"

802.11a support :)

"APValidChannels" = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,100,104,108,11 2,116,120,124,128,132,136,140,149,153,157,161,165)

Damn 802.11a and it's extensive array of channels - how slow are you going to have to drive to scan THAT lot. Might as well try and get lid closed running support again so we can warwalk.

Whoops. It's the iMac we're talking about here... More like external battery support!
