ALFA Network 【New Version Type-C WiFi USB】 AWUS036ACH Long-Range Dual-Band AC1200 Wireless Wi-Fi Adapter w/2x 5dBi External Antennas – 2.4GHz 300Mbps/5GHz 867Mbps – 802.11ac & A, B, G, N

A product with range and speed. Happy with it's performance so far.

Support 2G and 5G

Didn’t work out of the box when i connect to Kali Linux . But Its worked on parrot OS perfectly ..

Very good

Not good

Great little bit of kit - supports monitor mode so you can do things like injection to pen-test wifi networks that you own ;-) It didn't work out of the box on the latest version of Kali Linux - I had to download new drivers for it. I just used ChatGPT to tell me which ones to pull and after installation of those on my Pi 5 it was working perfectly. The high gain antennas will enable you to see and connected to more wifi networks than most standard wifi aerials in normal laptops, Raspberry PIs, etc. There are no known drivers for MacOS after 10.15 so beware of that. Also, I couldn't get it working on a Docker instance of Kali, so ended up with a bare metal install which worked just fine. In summary, great bit of kit that does what it says on the box. Just be aware of the compatibility issues with some operating systems (e.g. Docker, MacOS < 10.15) and be prepared for a bit of tinkering to get it up and running.

Super excelente 100% funcional tenia dudas por los comentarios, pero no nada que ver con la calidad y eficiencia del producto ha funcionado perfecto o diria espectacular, perfecto en kali linux, en laptop y raspberry 4 y me falta en maquina virtual pero su eficiencia es significativa se adapto perfectamente me sorprende su efectividad trabaja sobresalientemente bien woooooow increible 😯😯😯

مثالية لاختبار اختراق الشبكات اللاسلكية (WiFi Penetration Testing). كويس جداً تدعم التوصيل عبر كابل USB طويل، مما يسهل وضعها في مكان مناسب لاستقبال أقوى للإشارة. متوافقة مع أدوات مثل: aircrack-ng, Wireshark, و Reaver. دعم جيد من مجتمع Linux، خاصة توزيعة

Voldoet aan de verwachting dik tevreden.

**The Legend Grows: An Essential Tool for Every Pentester and Linux Power User** **★★★★★ The Gold Standard for Wireless Auditing and Connectivity** If you're in the world of penetration testing, wireless auditing, or are simply a Linux user who demands the most reliable and capable WiFi adapter on the market, look no further. The ALFA AWUS036ACH isn't just a product; it's the evolution of a legacy. It takes everything that made its predecessors legendary and elevates it with modern performance, making it an indispensable tool in my kit. **Unmatched Performance and Range: The Core of Its Power** This adapter is an absolute beast, and its performance is why it's worth every penny. * **Dual-Band AC1200 Power:** The ability to operate on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands is crucial. On the 2.4GHz band, it provides incredible range and penetration, perfect for capturing packets from a distance. The 5GHz band allows for faster transfers and access to less congested channels, which is essential for modern networks. * **Long-Range Monster:** The combination of high-power amplifiers and two large, removable 5dBi antennas gives this adapter a reach that consumer USB dongles can only dream of. I can reliably detect and interact with networks that are completely invisible to my laptop's internal card. * **Perfect for Monitor Mode and Packet Injection:** This is non-negotiable for pentesting. The AWUS036ACH, thanks to its proven Realtek chipset, flawlessly supports monitor mode and packet injection out-of-the-box on Linux. Tools like **Aircrack-ng, Kismet, and Wifite** recognize it immediately and work without any hiccups. This reliability during critical assessments is priceless. **Seamless Linux Compatibility: The "It Just Works" Factor** For Linux users, driver issues are the usual nightmare. The ALFA eliminates this problem entirely. * **Kernel-Native Drivers:** In most modern Linux distributions (Kali, Parrot, Ubuntu), the necessary drivers are already built into the kernel. You simply plug it in, and it's recognized immediately. No more hunting for obscure drivers or spending hours compiling them. * **Plug-and-Play on Kali Linux:** As the industry-standard pentesting OS, Kali Linux has flawless support for this adapter. It is, without a doubt, the most recommended and trusted Wi-Fi card within the Kali community for a reason. **Robust, Purpose-Built Design** * **Removable High-Gain Antennas:** The two 5dBi antennas provide excellent signal capture, and the fact they are removable means you can upgrade to even larger antennas for specialized long-range projects. * **Sturdy Build & Long Cable:** The adapter itself is built to last, with a solid metal casing that also acts as a heat sink. The included USB 3.0 cable is long and high-quality, allowing you to position the adapter for optimal reception without being constrained by your laptop's port location. **Real-World Use Cases: Where It Excels** * **Wireless Penetration Testing:** Its primary role. From reconnaissance and packet capture to performing deauthentication attacks and cracking WPA2 handshakes, it is the most reliable tool for the job. * **War Driving & Network Auditing:** Mapping out wireless networks in a large area (like a corporate campus or neighborhood) is where its long-range capability truly shines. * **General-Purpose Linux Use:** Even if you're not a pentester, if you need a rock-solid, high-performance USB WiFi adapter for your Linux desktop or laptop, this is the one to get. **The Final Verdict** The ALFA AWUS036ACH is more than just hardware; it's a force multiplier for anyone who works with wireless networks. Its legendary status is earned through unparalleled Linux compatibility, raw power, and absolute reliability when it matters most. **Who is this for?** * Penetration Testers and Ethical Hackers * Network Security Professionals and Students * Linux Enthusiasts who need a powerful, reliable external WiFi card * Anyone involved in wireless auditing and war driving **Who should look elsewhere?** * Users who only need a basic adapter for web browsing on Windows. **Final Thought:** If you're serious about wireless security or demand the best Linux-compatible networking gear, this is not an option—it's the standard. **Stop researching and just buy it. You won't be disappointed.** This is, without a doubt, one of the best investments you can make for your toolkit.
