1- ifconfig: invalid hw-addr 00 is normal, your wifi is back to normale now 2- i would recommend using more manual method root python /opt/wifi_mon/wifite.py and if the fake authentication didn't pass through you can add --force-fake or --fake-force i don't really remember, so it should be like python /opt/wifi_mon/wifite.py --force-fake (i don't even remember if its -- or - so you should try it 4 times )
