Best USB wireless adapter for BT4 Final

[autocannon]

Hi, been searching for the best USB wireless adapter for BT4 Final, with a focus on WPA handshake capture success. I have a Hawking HWUG1 that seems to send out DeAuth very well, but will not capture a handshake for anything. I also have an ALFA AWUS050NG that will connect to an AP but will not inject DeAuth or read handshakes when a client connects.

Has anyone had out of the box success with a specific adapter in the injection/handshake cap area?

Thanks,
AC

Hi,

I got success to get some handshake, with my tinny PCIe atheros.
This is my "lspci | grep Wireless" :

01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)

But it could be hard sometime to get, remember to launch your deauth with the mac address of a client in the -c parameter.Also check your wireless driver, madwifi is a good choice.

Even there is many reason why you can not get one, take a look here, specially the 'I Cannot Capture the Four-way Handshake!' you can find usefull informations.

In the end, for your question I think it is yes for many people with bt4, and a atheros chipset card, but as you can see in the link there is a lot of parameters to take in consideration.


Regards.

Quite new to this but the AWUS036H worked for me out of the box and I understand it highly rated among others. Using it I was able to crack my basic WPA password quite easily. Stick on a 9 dBi and it has great range.

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has anymore input on this topic specifically the 2000mW Alfa's?

Here is another option I am looking at...
http://cgi.ebay.com/45dBm-Outdoor-Lo...item5888cce3da

The supplier states
"A: The chipset is Realtek 8187L, we can provide the driver for most of the OS."

My personal favorite is the AWUS036H (1Watt model)

eBay has them quite cheap nowadays

45dBm Outdoor Long Range WIFI KIT 20.5dB Antenna 1000mW - eBay (item 380252251098 end time Nov-16-10 05:21:31 PST)

I got that one, its the AWUS036NH, it supposedly has the longest range out of any other adapter on the market, I can't really prove it unless I buy the 36N model. But so far it works with BT4 R1 out of the box no drivers needed. I got it for $36 on amazon free shipping.

I like the Alfa awus036h but it doesn't work with hostapd.

This is a good topic to discuss. I'm looking for "the best" adapter myself.

Thats a great adapter but if I recall it is not supported ootb on bt4f
