Umm that's not entirely true - you can use USB adapters with VMWare no problem whatsoever, I'm doing it right now.Quote:

Let me rephrase that for you, VMWare is capable of detecting physical hardware such as removable devices in this case. However not all hardware is supported. The best solution is to dual-boot Backtrack so that you may directly connect your USB adapter and it will show up. Then if it is compatible with aircrack you should be good to go.Quote:
