+You also need the following each time you want to use the device in monitor mode:
+   iwpriv <interface name> rfmontx 1
+For the above command, first make sure the interface is down.  You can bring the interface down with "ifconfig <interface name> down".
+NOTE: This will download the Enhanced Legacy version of the driver. Recent kernels include the Next-Generation version of this driver (called rt61pci). The rt61pci driver is untested, but probably needs no patch besides the usual [[mac80211]] patches.
