Broadcom Windows 10 Wireless Drivers
I have a broadcom BCM43142 wireless card, and wish to enable monitor mode. I'm using the broadcom-stawl driver, manually upgraded to the latest version. This card is not supported by the b43 driver.
Monitor mode is not supported on the wlan0 interface, but according to the documentation, this should enable a prism0 interface with monitoring capabilities:
There is a known issue with the Broadcom BCM43x drivers; I got around it but it was a very, very long arduous task, and even then I can't spoof. Best thing to do will. For the monitor mode to work, a separate interface named prism0 has to be enabled (via echo 1 > /proc/brcmmonitor0). Sadly, it can only be.
The moment I write 1 to that file, however, my system freezes completely.
How can I enable monitor mode, switch to another driver, or at least debug the freezing problem?

As mentioned, this is due to a bug in the driver.The new Broadcom source has already patched this so there's no need to manually patch it.
For A X64 System try
For A x32 System try
Then follow the instructions from the STA readme to install it
This is a bug in the driver. You have to patch the driver and compile it yourself.See: https://askubuntu.com/questions/387780/cant-change-brcm-monitor0-in-proc
