Took the risk, no issues in Kali 2020.2a
5 Stars
Took the risk, no issues in Kali 2020.2a
So after seeing the top review saying it was a counterfeit, I was pretty skeptical. I needed to replace my old 2.4 Alfa that no longer works with the new versions of Kali, and the DBRoth seller is pretty much the only guy in Amazon town with this newer version. Figured what the heck, amazon has a great return policy.So I took the risk. I've had no issues getting it to monitor/inject/capture with Kali 2020.2a. No additional drivers needed, it worked the way it should. I did a screenshot of the chipset readout from Airmon and it looks legit to me. As long as it works, and it does in my case. My old one wouldn't even recognize in Kali 2020.Oh, and it's a goofy green/teal color, but whatever.
