The capture you wish to perform will happen by default when you select the WiFi interface on your pc.

If you open the "Capture Options" dialog you can also uncheck the "Promiscuous" checkbox will then reduce possible traffic from other devices.

...and don't capture in monitor mode. It will probably default to not capturing in monitor mode.
