    It looks to me like they used an alternate driver to make that work.

It seems so, they were using a 'current' driver.

"current" from a third-party repo.

Using modinfo, I see that both my F26 and F32 are using the same driver, v4.1.4_6773.20130222.
Whereas the Monitor support was added to the driver circa Sep 2015.
So Fedora has been shipping a (very out of date?) driver.

Fedora only distributes the drivers provided by the upstream kernel, not third-party ones.

    Try using your built-in wifi adapter.

I did (as mentioned), and it didn't get me anywhere, (Intel 3165)
I'll re-investigate though.

That was on the old Fedora and wireshark. Also, you didn't tell NetworkManager to leave it alone.

    If you grabbed the whole screen, it was probably too big.  I've
    attached
    a shot of just the area.

Yeah, that's what I see, except, I get dashes instead of the checkboxes.

Then maybe your devices don't support it, although it looked like you were able to switch the onboard one into monitor mode. This F32 system you're using is different from that one though. Which device does it have?
