joeypesci Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Just curious, does anyone know if this Edimax EW-7711UAn or this Edimax WLAN nLite High Gain Would be any good for wifi cracking. I know there is the ALFA AWUS036H But is a bit too much price wise for me. But I'm hoping the above adapters work just as well for stuff like packet injection for kicking people of their wifi so they have to reconnect. I'm new at this so 'scuse me if this has been asked before and if I don't understand some replies :) Wanna test my own wifi out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should definitely go with a HIGH Gain antenna, as it will offer a better signal strength over the laptops built in wireless. Furthermore if you stand at a distance that is far away from where the AP is based you will gain a huge improvement from using a high gain antenna compared to a lower gain antenna. Secondly I am not sure whether the Edimax wireless cards do packet injection or not, but the ALFA AWUS036H will definitely do. Hope this helps.
