The EDIMAX EW-7318USg works great out of the box. I just cracked my WPA2 router.
its not the card but the chipset which is supported by BT and all the rt73 chipset based cards works fine.your card is same as WUSB54GC.hope you got my point.
You are right I should have been more clear. I posted the card because that is what people see in the stores. I really wish manufacturers would print on the side of the box what chipset the unit is using. The amount of flash and/or RAM would be nice too for access points.
hi every one
i have the edimax-ew7318usb too but i have a real problem i don't know if the problem is my wifi,laptop...??
i have a 2.2core2duo ,4GB ...laptop.
i plug my wifi and i put it in monitor mode
when i use airodump-ng it work fine when i specify a certain channel
ex:(airodump-ng -c 4 mon0 )
but if i use only (airodump-ng mon0 ) after 5-10s the interface is down
i have to unplug it and plug it again
and some times my laptop freeze and i have to reset it when i use airodump-ng or when i connect to a wifi network (this problem of freezing occur only when i use aircrack tools).
(my edimax work fine on xp)
does any one can help me please and thank for any help
I too am having a similar problem with the Edimax 718usg. Issues are:
I can scan using airodump, but when I then need to use SpoonWEP I sometimes have to unplug the card and put it back it to get it to work.
Sometimes when runnning Ettercap this card will loose its connection and the wireless manager can't reconnect it unless I pull it out and try again.
The card does get a little warm.... could this be the problem? I might try adding a heatsink or similar to see if that helps.
try modprobe rt73 works for me
After some operations these cards/usb devices will only reset (be enabled in a significantly different mode) if they are removed (physically) and reinserted to give the power-break.
I do not know the reason yet!
How to get it working ( a guide)
check the newbie area, i can't post URL's :S
name of the post is
"Get all RT73 drivers working and crack weps in 2 min!"
good adapter ok with aircrack-ng, but useless range
