Adapter Installation and Monitor ModeĪdapter installation is easy, simply plug and play. This allows us to do things like send deauthentication frames to clients, which forces them to re-authenticate to either their own or a malicious AP, capture a legitimate WPA2-PSK hash, capture the WPA 4-way handshake, reveal a hidden SSID, generate ARP frames for a WEP replay attack, and more.

Packet injection is important because it allows us to send and receive management and control frames from the adapter while it’s operating in monitor mode. Monitor mode is different from promiscuous mode, also used for packet sniffing, because monitor mode doesn’t require association with an access point or ad-hoc network. Both units come with a removable 5dBi antenna, featuring a standard RP-SMA connector, which is nice since it will accommodate different antenna types should the included omni-directional antenna not suit your needs.īest of all, both of these adapters support monitor mode (aka RFMON mode) and packet injection. The “36H” and “36NH” adapters are virtually identical, sans the NH’s ability to use the 802.11n band, as well as 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g. The only down side is its lack of a 5 GHz radio, but we’ll look beyond that for right now. This adapter has been a long-time favorite of Kali users given its small size, simple setup (drivers are already built in, just plug and go), excellent range, and cheap price. If you don’t need to poke and prod in the 5 GHz band, the Alfa AWUS036H (and NH) USB Wi-Fi adapter is one of the best options you have for wireless pen-testing with Kali Linux.
