The usb extension cord and dock can be very helpful if you are using this with a desktop, as you have better ability to position your wi-fi receiver in a line of sight to your router. 04lts–i’ve had some trouble with other usb devices, but not this one). Worked right out of the box on my unusual system (2006 macpro 1,1 ‘cheese grater’ running ubuntu 16. For my ethical testing purposes this adapter fits all my needs and i would definitely recommend to other internet/wireless security researchers. Because i am approved beforehand to do testing like this i don’t need to be sneaking around but i ‘d imagine that you would get some funny stares if you plug this in at a public cafe or something. Antennas unscrew and you can place this adapter into a somewhat small box or carrying case for portability. 2 – haven’t touched the 2020 release yet and it looks like kismet is changing a ton. Kismet, wifite, airmon, etc all are compatible with this adapter at least as of kali 2019. Using this on the kali operating system to run wireless packet injection for wireless attacks. Haven’t had any issues with it after spending a lot of time reading other reviews and specifications to make sure that it matched with my needs. Works well, does exactly what it says in description. What more could you need from an adapter?price was a little high, but you get what you pay for.
I use this with both windows 10 and kali linux, have used it in vmware too and no issues at allseems to have a good bitrate/transfer and doesnt drop out at all. The “man” docs in raspbian clearly state this however other sources i found on line omitted this small detail. As in: “sudo airodumpt-ng –band a wlan0mon.
No additional drivers or dicking around to get it up and running, at least on raspbian to get it to scan the 5ghz band you just need to add the switch “–band a” (this will scan 5ghz). My setup is a pi 3 + raspbian (box stock except for updates). 4 “monitoring” (wink) is becoming so yesterday. Would tell the “past me” to buy it again i wanted to finally get 5ghz working. So, the fix is this, if you can access the residential gateway (for me it was 192. It is still connected to the computer and can see all available networks, but cannot reconnect to the router once disconnected. That 5ghz part of the pau09 some how causes it to disconnect from the router. I have an older modem/router that only transmits 2. However, i was able to figure out what was wrong with the pau09. I communicated with panda wireless support and they respond to my emails very quickly and seemed like they knew what they were doing, but they really had no clue what was going on with their own product. I finally sat down and tried to figure out what is wrong with it. So, after a few months of using it and it just not staying connected.
