Product Information

highlighting them and coping from wireless-regdb-2013.02.13 folder directly works nothing special here If you always travels outstation or overseas and stay in Hotel with Wifi Hotspot, This is your best choice because from my own experience, your Laptop build in Wifi is too weak and always fail to get the connection The signal strengths I see with the HA are typically not as strong as what I see with the H. However, this can be misleading since the driver that the manufacturer writes controls this value, and from working on the 8187l driver, I know that it tends to be a bit optimistic. So this in itself is not really too important. They both saw about the same networks. There was some variation at times, with the H tending to see a few more. Again, this fact alone is not that important however, but consumers tend to like devices that show lots of networks, even if they can’t connect to them J. That said, I ran into some issues with the default filter, so I had to create a blank filter with the proper values.

This adapter is only for 2.4ghz and it has a sma connector. This usb wifi card is compatible with 802.11g or 802.11n, mimo and supports data rate up to 150 mbps.Once I created a new blank filter, I just added the appropriate Vendor ID and Product ID and saved it. They were both able to connect to the same set of networks where I am currently located, however I need to test this in more locations which will happen as we start to move the boat in 2 weeks. My current location is pretty limited so I don’t think there is anything conclusive from this yet. From wireless-regdb-2013.02.13 folder Copy any .pem files you see to the crda pubkeys directory inside crda-1.1.3 folder iwconfig wlan(x) txpower 30 - This is the command that sets txpower and 30 is the highest you'll get After I had the device filter setup, I detached the device from my workstation and logged into Kali. As you can see, there are no wireless devices connected to my VM yet.

With everything properly connected and configured, it was time to set up monitor mode. To do this, I started airmon-ng on the wlan0 device. root@kali: ~# airmon-ng start wlan0

iwconfig wlan(x) mode monitor - At this time as well, if your adapter isn't in monitor mode when you typed just "iwconfig" by itself at the command prompt; this will change it to monitor mode. This needs to be done to utilize the adapter with all the kali apps. I’m running into the same issue that James posted on November 15th. When I disconnect and reconnect the device manually then go to Devices>USB>Atheros, just as you suggested to James, I still receive the “failed to attach the USB device” warning. Finally, I ran Wash to find out if there were any weak WPS devices that I could use to test out my new card. root@kali: ~# wash -i wlan0mon ALFA AWUS036NHA is an 802.11n wireless USB adapter from ALFA Network, Inc. with a top connection speed of 150 mbps.
