Best USB wifi adapter?
« on: April 13, 2015, 04:28:23 AM »
I was thinking about buying a usb wifi adapter for my laptop. Which one do you guys recommend? I want one that'd be good for network monitoring and injection, with decent range. Not too expensive.

I've been looking on Amazon and was considering the TP-Link TL-WN722N

but I wanted to see what you guys recommend.

I'd recommend the tplink that's the USB adapter I use. My laptop has a supported atheros so I don't use it much, had used it for my desktop and my old laptop but it's a good device. Range is kind of shitty though. In thinking about getting one of those omni directional ones though see if those give off better range

[09:27] (+lenoch) sorry

what about the "ALFA USB WiFi AWUS" series?

cheap and good. Atheros works out of the box under linux
