NHA just arrived. Yeah, low signal and less AP detection. but who cares? great speed and stability. you don't have to see unnecessary APs anyway.

hi digip, sorry for the late reply. i have been waiting for my new wifi adapter. well, no traffic in prosmiscuous mode. i mean, just dhcp and SSDP requests. nothing more.

How can i go prosmiscuous in the Wireshark? Just my own traffic, nothing more in Wireshark :)

Hello Cooper, Yeah, i did this. No interesting traffic on Wireshark. So i have to go with promiscuous mode, right?

Bump! Extra note: I have tried arpspoof too, instead of Ettercap. It doesn't kill the connection of client. But SSLstrip returns nothing. Strange.

Hello everyone, I am trying to sniff a network. Adapter TL-WN722N Target AP signal: %80-85 Target network topology: 1 router, 15 clients (mostly windows) My steps are: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward airmon-ng start wlan0 going to /etc/ettercap/etter.conf to set: ec_uid = 0 ec_gid = 0 -- Commenting out iptables # if you use iptables: redir_command_on = "iptables -t n.... redir_command_off = "iptables -t ...... and then ettercap -G Sniff -> Unified Sniffing, selecting adapter wlan0 Hosts -> Scan Hosts -> Add victims to target list and then MITM->Arp and then Start->Start Sniffing And then running dsniff -i wlan0 to sniff interesting packets... Okay everything works great until here. Sometimes, ettercap kills the connection of client. As far i understand, i am forwarding packets with ARP Poisoning. So here are my questions: - Is that possible to sniff network in "passive" or "unoffensive" mode? Ettercap has "Unoffensive" option but if i go with that, i can't scan hosts. I can't understand by. - My purpose is that just sniffing network, not ALTER or EDIT any packets. Just sniffing. - How can i start a proper sniffing? My target AP has %80-85 signal quality. No packet loss to gateway. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Hello, @digip: Well this is not a signal issue i guess, because i am testing realtime with my other adapter TL-WN722N which is REALLY small, tiny adapter. Works x5 better than AWUS036H. @Cooper: Thanks for the link. Seems AWUS036NHA is the best choice between Alfa products :)

From an authorized seller, i am going to return it and replace it with AWUS036NHA What you think?

Hello Cooper, All physical connections are ok, i have changed 3 more usb cables to make sure. No luck.

Hello everyone, I have ordered Alfa Awus036H (RTL8187 chipset) about 1 week ago and still trying to make it working with Kali. Let me explain the whole issue: I have running Kali in my both desktop & laptop. Kali is working under VMware environment also i have tested with Kali LiveCD to remove VM layer. However, my connection is dropping every 1-2 minutes. Actually connection drops on some actions like: - Running ettercap - Any ARP command - Port scanning My purpose is not dealing with WEP/WPA cracking, i would like to use Ettercap or other tools for ARP poisoning. It looks like device is not responding at all, i have to re-plug it to USB. And also, i have tested it on Windows, connection is really slow. I have a TP-Link TL-WN722N also, trying to download 1000mb test file on both adapters (http://ipv4.download.thinkbroadband.com/1GB.zip) TP-Link downloads with 3.4 MB/s Alfa downloads with 250 kb/s I have changed the USB cable with USB Y-cable, not changing anything. I made further tests and plugged my TP-Link adapter (Atheros chipset) and everything seems fine. There are mixed responses and solutions for my situtation, i have tried all. (Disabling network-manager, setting TX power, trying to install drivers which is unnecessary on Kali) I am willing to order a new adapter if Alfa is really buggy on Kali (or any OS) If you have a brand/model suggestion for ARP poisoning purposes, that would be great. However, i would like to find a solution and the root of issue. Any ideas on my situtation? I can send detailed logs, even enable remote vnc or anything to resolve this. Thank you all.
