It sounds like you have an intel mac. Intel macs cannot sniff passively at the moment. Only active scanning can be done with them. I would look into getting this device http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/DWL- G122 or another device that will passively scan in kismac. Others can be found here http://kismac.de/_trac/wiki/Hardware%20List

Have tried weak scheduling attack - seems to take a very long time - is that normal? Wordlist attack - I'm using the dictionary from wepattack (any other suggestions), hasn't worked for me yet.
