Honestly this adapter is not well supported, that’s why you’re having issues with it, you can try to manually install its drivers but it might still give you issues with packet injection and monitor mode, I never used this chipset either so I can not give you exact installation steps.

As mentioned in the course requirements you need a powerful adapter that supports monitor mode and packet injection, checkout the adapters on the following link, they all support monitor mode and packet injection:

If you’re not sure which one to get the checkout the adapters video in the resources of lecture 11, here is a link to it anyway:

Hello!
so I recently purchased this course and i bought wireless adapter (Tenda W311MI) and i followed the instructions how to connect it to kali linux but i couldnt do it. Can someone tell me if this wireless adapter is even compatible with kali?
thanks for answers

Is it possible to do all the stuff in this course using a different OS like Qubes or tails and will the adapter connect to these specific OS which are Qubes and tails?

Hi, I am currently taking the ‘Learn Social Engineering From Scratch’ Course. Now I am in lecture 8.5, but one problem has occurred at the end. The setups for the meterpreter file are complete, but when I try to run the ‘go/meterpreter/rev_https, port 8080^C’ command, it says that this directory does not exist. I’m sure that I placed the files at the right location. Why is the error occurring?

One thing that I’m suspicious about is my wireless adapter. I’m not using the external wireless adapter, but I’m using the built-in one on my computer. Is the error occurring because of this? Or is there something else causing the problem? I need clarification. Thank you.

Maybe, i would suggest you to get one of the adapters that we recommend cause they work perfectly fine. Please checkout the adapters on the following link, they all support monitor mode and packet injection:

AC650LONG RANGE USB WI-FI ADAPTER

So the Realtek RTL8812AU 2.4 & 5 Ghz USB Wireless Adapter will work just fine? I was confused cause the course requirements said “Wireless adapter like ALFA AWUS036NHA or anything with an Atheros chip (more info provided in the course)”, so does the realtek RTL8812AU have one and its fine to use right?

[Vashisht Boodhun]

As mentioned in the course requirements you need an external wireless adapter for the cracking lectures 11 to 28, you can do everything else without one though, just make sure you set Kali to use a Nat Network as shown in lecture 5 and skip the part where I add my external wireless card.The built in card is not good for hacking, you need a powerful card that supports monitor mode and packet injection so please checkout the adapters on the following link, they all support monitor mode and packet injection:

I am going to buy the wifi password penetration testing course on udemy but the requirements say that i need a wireless adapter With atheros chip. Would Realtek RTL8812AU 2.4 & 5 Ghz USB Wireless Adapter on your website work for this course

Thanks

[Vashisht Boodhun]

Then did you plug in your adapter? Did you try testing with natnetwork before?

[Vashisht Boodhun]

Can you tell me the exact model of your wifi adapter?

Thank you.

Can you tell me the exact model of your wifi adapter?

[Aayan_001]

I am thinking of buying an adapter from your website. Would it be delivering to saudi arabia during this lockdown?

[Vashisht Boodhun]

Please try to re-enable monitor mode again using this:

ifconfig wlan0 down
airmon-ng check kill && rfkill unblock all
iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
ifconfig wlan0 up

– Make sure you do NOT connect the adapter until Kali fully loads, and after you log in as root,
– Connect it directly to the computer, don’t use a hub or an extension, and
– Try different USB ports in your PC with different USB settings (2.0 & 3.0) in Kali USB settings in Vbox.

If the above didn’t help, then try to enable monitor using another method:

If all of the above didn’t help then try updating Kali using the following commands
apt-get update

Hope this helps.
