It would help if you gave some more information than "can't get monitor or scanning to work at all". Any error message? Any steps to reproduce the problem?

I load Wellenreiter. "Can't set interface 'eth0' into monitor mode: Invalid argument Continue with limited functionality?"
The "Rescan Neighbourhood" function in Wireless Configuration does not do anything.
ifconfig:

Also, if I take the CF card out and put it back in, it creates an eth0 and then puts the network card at eth1. If I do it again it will up the number again. I hope this is helpful.
