    • Better than I expected, justifies the price for sure.
Works flawlessly with Linux kubuntu 25.04. Connection seems really stable, and it reaches a bit further than my laptop wifi card does (about 35-45 feet away from my router through an exterior wall) at a faster speed than I expected. Easy to stick together, and it's simple plug-n-play. I would like it to have a more stable base, and for it to come with a little carrying case (i understand why it doesn't). ... show more

    • No Monitor Mode!!!!!!!!!!!!
IYKYK. this isn't the adapter you're looking for. They changed the chipset. Save yourself the trouble. For normal people use it's great lol.

    • Look no further
Hands down the best adapter out there in this price range, it is highly sensitive for monitor mode. Best part is its plug and play within Kali. With my tp link adapter it took absolute ages to get it to run properly.. David bombal sent me and i will never buy any other adapter company. Alfa youve got a customer for life ... show more

    • Will not work with monitor mode
It functions decently as a standard wifi adapter. When combined with WireShark, or any sort of packet sniffing program on Windows 8, Windows Server 2016, or Windows 10 (tested this adapter on all 3), it will not go into monitor mode. nPcap was downloaded on all systems. Do not purchase this adapter if you intend on going into monitor mode on a Windows device. ... show more
