Great! I now get an additional interface:
wlan1-wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr <deleted>
BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
is this the one? Is the name wlan1-wlan0 that I should use to connect?
BTW: What is the interface?
mon.wlan0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr <deleted>
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:3521 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:585952 (572.2 KiB) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
