At this point my question seems to be, were is the error?
  - hardware
  - pcmcia
  - wifi driver
  - configuration
  - encryption
  - other

'sudo kismet' failed with "unable to open cisco control file 
/proc/driver/aironet/eth0/Config  2:No such file or directory"

At this point, I've already spent way more time than I should have.  
Time to move on to more important projects.
