  • Holy crap. I finally got it working after a few ...
##I am aware that my review is a bit confusing, since I am covering my experience in using this in several renditions of Kali, including but not limited to... (a) Kali VM in Virtualbox (b) Kali hard drive install (c) Kali Nethunter 3.0 on a rooted tablet. In a short while, I am going to edit this review, once I think my new revision is more appropriate for my liking. I just realized, that I probably should assume that our readers understand how to use Kali and Linux, and that the guides I was typing below (on enabling and using Monitor Mode) is completely unnecessary. Meanwhile, I will assure you, that as soon as you ditch using Virtual Machine versions of Kali, a lot of your device recognition issues will be gone. ## UPDATE (9/13/16): This adapter does work with NetHunter Kali (the mobile tablet version of Kali). I connected it with my fancy new toy (a rooted Nexus 7 tablet with Nethunter installed), and after about a week of fumbling with the settings and raging I finally got it to work. Note, that it is MANDATORY that you need a OTG USB Y-Adapter Cable (OTG = On-The-Go), OR, you can buy a POWERED OTG hub from Amazon. I have tried going to Fry's, and aside from the ordinary unpowered OTG cables, they got nothing else. You might also need a double-sided male-to-male USB 2.0 cable if you are going for the BadUSB MITM attacks as well. The reason why you need more specific cables and connectors is that there is a combination of power issues in being able to keep this adapter running off the Nexus 7 tablet. Power issue #1, Lollipop Android's lousy power-management settings, where it would cut the power on your adapter before it is allowed to operate normally (you can look at your "dmesg" logs to confirm). Power issue #2, the Nexus 7's hardware doesn't really provide enough juice through the cables to have the TP-Link adapter running reliably. It might turn on and off again unexpectedly if you are running something like Airmon, Aireplay, or Mana Wireless Toolkit for example. UPDATE (8/27/16): Disregard what I said previously. As it turns out it's not a 100% certain fix for recognition issues through VirtualBox --> Kali VM. It MAY help. But after rebooting a few times and attempting to reenact my same steps it failed to recognize the dongle properly again. Out of frustration and keyboard breaking RAAAAGE, I decided to say, "f--- it", and went ahead and installed a full copy of Kali onto a 20GB partition I made in my hard drive. Surprisingly, the newest distro version completely recognizes the TP-Link, and confirms that this wi-fi dongle... (1) WILL WORK (2) WILL ARP INJECT(one of many methods) and in the event of any recognition issues (3) CAN BE FIXED THROUGH TERMINAL. The Kali distro you are looking for should be "32/64 bit Version 2016.1". So far that's the only trouble-free iso I have seen since I been playing with Kali in two years. A previous version I tried installing before (late 2015) had major errors in it's directories (a dozen or so mislabeled folders), despite multiple installation attempts, disk images redownloaded and checksums against the hash. I also played with "Katoolin" in Ubuntu (really bad idea), tried to create a Persistent Live USB version of Kali from Windows (not so bad of a idea), and loaded Kali within VirtualBox (mostly a waste of time, aside from having a safe environment to analyze shady looking files). I have tried every alternative before resorting to attempting to install Kali again on my hard disk. I recommend just dumping that VBox workaround that people are frustrating themselves over, and as long as they have experience, or friends, in installing Linux, just go ahead and get your machine ready for a legitimate install (even the Kali GUI installer is not particularly informative and leaves out a ton of important details, make sure you know how to do your byte-to-gigabyte math and which "sda" "sdb" or partition properly represents where you WANT to install). You will not be able to create a "Kali Persistent Live USB" WITHOUT a working Linux distro installed on your hard disk, and third party solutions vary in mileage and tech support (and even English apparently). So let's not like, frustrate you any further. Before I depart, I want to notify you of a few things you definitely need to know before playing around with Kali + Wifi Dongle. Memorize these terminal commands in this order... so you can troubleshoot any issues quickly without having to wander around the internet aimlessly looking for answers. (a) "ifconfig", lists all of your network interfaces. Your main Wi-Fi card and this TP-Link should show up as "wlan0 or wlan1" or something like that. The dongle will not have a LAN IP address. Thats the one you are going to set in monitor mode. (b) "airmon-ng start <wlan0 OR wlan1 OR whatever>.". Begins "monitor mode" for your network card. You want to include whatever wlan number your "ifconfig" command said was TP-Link (it should be in the list as Atheros) (c) "airodump-ng <wlan0 OR wlan1 OR whatever>". This lists all of the available routers/devices in range of your TP-Link, available to attack. For beginners, I suggest something like one of YOUR OWN machines in your LOCAL network. Or you know, your neighbor's poorly configured WEP router. I didn't tell you that last one, I'm not responsible if you get beaten up over this. And besides, I barely got started, and have not learned a thing yet about stealthy use of pentest tools. (d) "airmon-ng check kill" AND "service network-manager start". This is your "Oh S---" button. In the event that you fail in a Wi-Fi attack, lose your session, and you need to immediately restart your process, the first one disables monitoring mode, the second command restores functionality to your TP-Link (the light will come back on, you might get internet access back in Kali). Repeat steps (a) to (c) again. (e) "fern-wifi-cracker". It's a GUI version of several Wi-Fi cracking tools combined together. I didn't really like this, but it did help for starters in letting me understand how all of Kali's WEP/WPA cracking works. It's sort of like Armitage but for aircrack-ng, aireplay-ng, airodump-ng and airmon-ng. It's not very detailed in describing what's going on in the background. I often had to run Wireshark alongside of it so I can observe if my laptop is doing anything. Ultimately it's better to understand the command line, so you can understand a more detailed readout of what's going on. You can then customize your attacks to make it more successful, and open more options than what a GUI would offer. It pretty much applies to everything in Linux (setting LOCALHOST ports and customized PAYLOADS in Metasploit Framework for example). Finding credible documentation and guides for Kali is incredibly hard without professional and academic help (most Ubuntu guides work though, a few changes needed). Try looking at all of those downvoted YouTube videos posted by dumb teens, with terrible music in the background. After I graduate with my Accounting degree, I plan on reenrolling back to a local community college for the CHFI Program (Computer Hacking Forensic Investigator), to better round out my KSAs in spite of my criminal record. But for now, a good YouTube source is this guy named "Ed Walsh" on YouTube. He sounds like a real Revenge of the Nerds Casting Call Fellow, but this guy is awesome. OLD POST (8/25/16): Holy crap. I finally got it working after a few days. This is Kali Linux on VirtualBox VM, Version 5.4.1, with the extension pack installed on a Windows 10 system. It's finally detected in the distro, and even Fern Wifi Cracker works with it. But since I do not know which one of my Googled fixes actually did it, i'll list them all for you. 1. Deleted the UpperFilters registry key using RegEdit (follow this guide: [...]) 2. Reenabled USB 3.0 support instead of the 2.0 that everyone was suggesting in the VirtualBox USB Settings (requires installation of the extension pack) 3. Deleted the USBPCAP File from Windows Add/Remove Programs, that was added by the WireShark Windows installation. Apparently it causes problems with the USB support for VBox. So better get used to running WireShark with Kali. 4. Manually installed the "Windows 10 Drivers" FIRST before doing anything to the guest machine. It's actually Windows 8.1 drivers. Go into your TP-Link installation disc that came with the package, go to this directory, "E:\TL-WN721N TL-WN722N\Driver Files\Windows 8.1 64bit", highlight everything and drag it into this directory, "C:\Windows\System32\drivers". Then go to this directory to run the setup file, "E:\TL-WN721N TL-WN722N". If you still have problems, right-click Setup.Exe, Properties, Compatibility Tab, and check the checkbox and select in the Drop-Down, "Windows XP Service Pack 3" as your compatibility mode. (If the installation bar in the installer froze at any point, you dropped the driver files into the wrong directory, so backtrack and try again). 5. Finally, you have to ensure that the Kali VM can detect and install it's own Wifi-Dongle drivers on IT'S OWN. So follow this video down to the letter. Make sure you kept your dongle INSIDE the USB port as you are creating your USB filter, but RIGHT BEFORE you boot up the Kali VM, you disconnect the USB through the Safely Remove Hardware AND manually remove the dongle out of the port. 6. Don't forget to select USB 3.0 for your USB filter if your dongle is plugged into a 3.0 port. That was the final thing I did out of frustration before it finally got detected (tiny red blinky light on the USB icon = good, never seen a green blinky light but it still works). I was pretty close to breaking my keyboard with RAGE, but I think I covered everything. ... show more

  • This little thing is awesome!
---------------------------------------------------------- UPDATED: August 21, 2013 (Update section below) ---------------------------------------------------------- Installed January 14, 2011 and still excellent. Here's my take on the TP-Link TL-WN722N Wireless USB Adapter: ------------- POSITIVES: ------------- ** It really, really works like mad. ** I get constant download speeds of 12Mbps+, which is close the the max of my internet bandwidth. - It's very cheap cost-wise for the great performance it gives you - It's small(ish), though it will look big connected to your laptop - Comes with a 3' USB extension cable which I definitely recommend using. It helps position the device, and keeps it from crowding your laptop or from being destroyed by being knocked out of your PC's front USB port. - Has a diffused green LED under the white plastic to let you know it's working, instead of the blinding blue LEDs that everyone uses these days. The light turns off when it's not powered (like when you hit Standby on your PC). NOTE: It's still annoying in a dark room when I'm trying to sleep, but a few post-it notes helps that. - The software is relatively simple to install and use, and allows you to use other products to manage your WiFi instead. - The current driver, software, and documents come on a mini CD and are all up to date with what's available on TP-Link's web site - The documentation is good, but it could use some more detail. ---------------------- MINOR NEGATIVES: ---------------------- - The TP-LINK Wireless Client Utility is functional but could be more intuitive. A configuration "wizard" would be a good improvement for manual configs. (It has been updated as of Jan 5, 2012 - see below) - Manual configuration (which you need if your network is securely hidden and requires a pass code) isn't well-documented, though you will be able to get it to work with the document, and maybe a little trial and error. If your setup is totally open security-wise (this would be BAD), you will have no problem with the software. - Even if the driver is installed incorrectly, the client utility may report enough information to make you think it is installed. When in doubt, do a complete removal of the software and drivers and re-install. - The QSS software that comes with the device is ONLY usable with other TP-Link products. Don't bother installing it unless you have a TP-Link Router/Access Point that has QSS built in. (As of the client update on Jan. 5, 2012, it appears to be installed automatically) ------------------------ UPDATED 08-21-2013 ------------------------ Nothing new to add! This thing still rocks. No news is good new, right? Thank you everyone who chose to mark my review helpful! ------------------------ UPDATED 01-23-2012 ------------------------ - I've kept track, and this device has worked well even with interference from Coronal Mass Ejections from the sun (sunspot activity), though I have noticed that the performance decreases (could be other things along that long internet path, as well). - I now have a TP-Link TL-WA901ND 2.0 Access Point, which this device works well with. Unfortunately is does NOT connect at the advertised "150Mbps" potential speed when it's configured to do so, but I never really expected it to. My max internet connection of 13Mbps is far below that high rating, anyway. - The latest WiFi utility for this device is up on TP-Link's web site as of Jan. 5, 2012, and I'm a bit disappointed with it. On the plus side, it is probably simpler to use - which is a good thing for most users, but it's been dumbed down to remove all of the extra connection info power users like me appreciate. The message windows are also annoying and the English grammar is sometimes embarrassingly wrong. It also looks a bit cheesy compared to the previous utility version. At least it works well. - It is difficult to tell if the actual hardware drivers have been updated, because software info on the page for this device is really incomplete. It looks like they are not updated since I originally posted this review. - I still benefit from disconnecting and reconnecting the device once in a great while, but the problem that causes the lowered performance could be my PC, the access point, or electromagnetic interference. Hard to say. - To date, 4 people were helpless in the face of my review - maybe it put them to sleep. Thanks very much to everyone who took the time to click "Yes". ----------------------------- My installation experience ----------------------------- A friend of mine needed a WiFi adapter since she moved to a location that wasn't wired, so I recommended this to her based on the great reviews it's received. She successfully and easily installed this device on her work laptop, and was extremely impressed with it's ability to drag a much better signal out of the almost inaccessible 802.11n WiFi router located down stairs, the signal of which is blocked by many walls and turns. She also needed to install the device on her personal PC. Unfortunately we spent hours over chat trying to get it installed and working, and FINALLY got it done after completely removing the software and drivers that she had installed, and then reinstalling those drivers with my guidance. It was only at this point that she said, "Oh yeah, I kind of passed over that part" where XP asks for confirmation to install an unsigned driver. AHHHHHHH! Well, now it works. :) The signal is not fantastic, but it's 4 times better than it used to be (for her laptop) and is good enough for her PC. It definitely works. So one lesson for you is: Please do yourself a favor, and let your operating system install the driver properly. ;) The night I helped my friend with her WiFi, I received and installed my own TL-WN722N adapter, to help her through the install process and to replace the D-Link 4300 router I was using as a WiFi receiver (firmware v1.8 has bridging). After installing this little thing and adjusting the antenna, I got download speeds almost twice as fast as before to the aging Linksys 802.11b-only wifi router downstairs. I then spent some time replacing that Linksys device with the D-Link 4300, turned on Super-G, and got almost 13Mbit down and 1.7Mbit up, which is more than four times what I was getting before on download and upload. The download speed varies between 8Mb-12Mb - it probably hits 12mb because of Super-G infringing on other people's signal space :P - but the upload speed has been really constant at 1.7Mb or so since I installed it, even to the Linksys router. The download speed is almost as good as I can get by plugging in a 75' network cable directly to the router. So this little thing really rocks! FYI, DSL Reports has an excellent set of speed reporting tools, as well as info on increasing network equipment and WiFi performance. Check it out! I'd enter a link, but Amazon would probably only delete it. That's it, another novel for my reviews. I'll update this over time if anything new happens... ... show more

These adapters work very well! Plugged in and worked on my Linux PC's. Not sure why other companies also don't have their product work this way.
