-The presence of a [phy0] tag at the end of the driver name is an indicator for mac80211, so the Broadcom card is using a mac80211 driver. **Note that mac80211 is supported only since aircrack-ng v1.0-rc1, and it won't work with v0.9.1, which this tutorial primarily refers to.**

 Both entries of the Atheros card show "madwifi-ng" as the driver - follow the madwifi-ng-specific steps to set up the Atheros card.
 Finally, the Ralink shows neither of these indicators, so it is using an ieee80211 driver - see the generic instructions for setting it up.

 To see if you captured any handshake packets, there are two ways.  Watch the airodump-ng screen for " WPA handshake: 00:14:6C:7E:40:80" in the top right-hand corner.  This means a four-way handshake was successfully captured.  See just above for an example screenshot.
-use Wireshark and apply a filter of "eapol".  This displays only eapol packets you are interested in.  Thus you can see if capture contains 0,1,2,3 or 4 eapol packets.
