I tried the aireplay test but it said "No Answers" instead of "Injection is working". I also get error of List of possible errors (which also includes packet injection problem) when trying to associate with aireplay. But my adapter is in monitor mode.

aireplay-ng --test wlan1mon

gives

Trying broadcast probe requests...
No Answers...
Found 0 APs

My chipset is a Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070

I'm kind of a beginner in this so go a little easy on me. Thanks in advance.

SOLVED:

The test result says "No Answers..." and "Found 0 APs". There was no AP nearby that can give answer to ensure that your adapter actually supports packet injection, so of course there's no answer from any AP.

Make sure you are close enough to the AP (any WiFi hotspot). If that didn't work, Go to aircrack's official site to check whether your adapter is capable or not.

    buy a new adapter that supports packet injection! – Eibo Sep 05 '16 at 06:58
  • Take a look at https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/135837/strange-behavior-when-injection-wifi-packets-with-aireplay-ng/135841#135841 It is not exactly the same, but looks related – Dog eat cat world Sep 05 '16 at 06:59
  • No, that's not the issue. tried it. see edited question for the error – Slim Shady Sep 05 '16 at 07:34
  • Are you close enough to the AP, have you tried another card, maybe it's an OS problem. What is your OS version? – Eibo Sep 05 '16 at 07:42
  • many blogs referred to it as an OS problem, you need to install kernel headers and other required files, try to use another OS with another version. – Eibo Sep 05 '16 at 07:52
  • OMFG IT WORKED. INJECTION IS WORKING. I used my phone's hotspot and it worked. I guess the issue was that I was far from the AP. thanks everyone – Slim Shady Sep 05 '16 at 08:05

Have you read the aircrack article about supported cards? Start there to begin with. They even have a tool to test if your cards supports monitor/injection mode. If the hardware doesn't support modes other than station infrastructure mode, you're out of luck. If it does, then make sure you have the correct drivers supporting this feature. At last you OS should have the tools to inject/monitor, but this is not the problem, most of the time.

From what I have found (just by searching, I haven't actually confirmed anything) is your card doesn't support injection or monitor mode.
