Firstnamegreat

I have it running in virtual box now. But at the time I couldn't even access the gui boot menu in the live USB. It just bypassed everything

I have the basic ALFA AWUS036NEH with a stock 5dbi antenna. If I was to upgrade to a 9dbi omni directional, would that help with packet injection. I have researched and it seems that 5dbi is really for receiving power and not transmission. Do you have an opinion about the ALPA NHA?

Would you recommend The NHA??? from what I hear packet injection and low power connections are complimented by it. Would adding a paddle omni directional antenna help with packet injection?

Hey did you ever figure this out? I just ripped open my ALHA NEH and it says RT 3070L too. I am having a lot of problems with reaver and what knot. any fixes?

Thank you very much for the detailed response. Everything is work great now! Another question though...how do I get reaver to work or another option to crack my WPS pin and then possibly pass it to another Kali Linux program to hash the pass phrase?

I finally got reaver to associate with the AP by specifying the channel with -c. It will not crack though?? any ideas?

These screenshots may help

Might I also ask why you deauth command contains to MAC addresses?

I am also having major trouble with the injection test. I have the AWUS036NEH sold on these fourms and it fails for some reason. I have kail updated and upgradaded.

Thank you for the knowledgeable response! I have never paid attention to those numbers, but I am pretty sure my commands are making it because I watch my phone that is connected to the AP and it loses wifi. Still no handshake in airdump-ng top right hand corner after I cease Deauth commands.

Actually had my phone connected to it so yes all my actions were permitted being the router is mine.

Thank you very much for the caring and quick response. I do not have access to another computer with Kali. Only my MacBook. I have the driver rt2800usb and chipset RT2800/RT3070

I can't use my card to crack wps enabled pins through reaver. It won't even capture a 4way handshake

My genuine ALPHA AWUS036NEH is working fine for Deauth commands, but it's failing to inject packets and AirPlay injection test?

I am running Elcaptian on the MacBook. I have Kali Linux now installed on VMware fusion

Hey Cooper, thanks for the response and sorry I didn't write back sooner. I am now full concentrated on fixing the problem at hand. Are you experienced at Kail linux? Just wondering? First problem: I have the Broadcom BCM43602 standard internal wireless card. The echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/brcm_monitor0 method does not work. My ALPHA is not a knock off. The hologram is legit too. I only have one ALPHA usb that I can not get to work for the injection test with airplay-ng although I can send deauth commands which proves injections work right? I am monitoring the AP with (airodump-ng -c 8 -w SCAN_test --bssid Macaddress wlan0) ..in another terminal I run (airplay-ng -0 0 -a macaddress wlan0) and I successfully send deauth commands ...when I stop sending death commands, No handshake appears in the airodump-ng terminal I first opened

I am pretty sure this is the chip set in my AWUS036NEH that I am having trouble using with Kali linux for packet injection. Please let me know if you figure something out.

Hello everyone. I would like to thank you for checking my post out in advance because I am having some serious issues that I can not figure out on my own or with the Kali Linux forms. I have even resulted in hours of Google searches I am a recent recipient of an AWUS036NEH wireless network adapter that I purchased specifically for network penetration testing. I have Kali linux 2016.1 installed on a live USB. I, for the life of me, can not figure out what is wrong with Kali Linux or my Network adapter that is sold and recommend by Hak5. I have a Macbook Pro 2015 13' with 8gb ram. The first problem I have is setting my internal card to work with monitor mode and packet injection. The guides I am following have not helped and I have literally run out of literature to to assist me in my quest for success. I have been able to boot into Kali using the USB and successfully put my (External AWUS036NEH) network adapter into monitor mode. The second problem is when using reaver it will not associate with APs and fails injection tests. (This card is recommended by Hack5 and the majority of Google for its out of the box compatibility in al aspects of pen testing) The third problem is I tried to <apt-get update & apt-get- dist update> and the update works fine and so does apt-get dist update UNTIL the very end I get a message that my memory is running low and it fails shortly after. I was under the assumption that everything was being loaded to my usb which is 16GB and that should be more than enough to update and upgrade. Finally, when I actually get kali booted there is no boot menu to allow me to add persistence and when using the other method of installation that the Kali Linux recommends the boot menu is tiny and frozen at the top left hand corner of the screen. This method of installation to my USB is though the terminal command line with sudo dd. This results in a failed installation. If anyone has any comments at all to assist me I would be more than grateful to hear them. In addition, ANY recommendations for forums to visit or chat channels to join. I am a first year Computer Science major and consider myself very competent and I have been trying to figure this out for weeks. I can provide any screenshots or maybe a walk thru with someone willing. Any knowledge will help please comment!
