    Cant change my wireless network adapers channel?

    I am currently trying to crack my wep at home and the adapter I am using wont match the network's channel?
    This is what I tried

    Code:
    sudo iwconfig mon0 chanel 6
    And airodump-ng keeps saying my adapter is on channel -1 and my network is on channel 6.

    Fixed it. I use this thread

    But I believe that it caused some problems, and my desktop would freeze and go black so I had too reinstall Ubuntu. But then again im unsure..

    Hey

    The default wireless network channel is channel 11 and it's what things revert to if you reset them. So resetting the switch and the card should put them both back on 11.

    Although you shouldn't need to change the channel on the card, as you just change it on the switch and the card picks up _all_ channels and adapts to the one you pick as your network.
