It's a great choice on a budget for some security "testing". It performs magnificently when paired with a Yagi antena! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Monitor mode and packet injection supported *by on Reviewed in the United States September 26, 2025* Exeptional card. Monitor mode and packet injection supported out of the box. Tested on Kali and Arch with black arch apps and repos configured. Probably I will get another one. If you are looking to "practice" and lear about wireless auditing put your money on this card and forget anything else from Alfa network. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great adapter, Linux monitor mode capable *by on Reviewed in the United States March 12, 2025* This adapter works straight out of the box on Kali Linux 2024.4. Monitor mode works great and very good range, I was testing BSSID's around 80m away. ## Frequently Bought Together - Alfa AWUS036ACHM 802.11ac WiFi Range Boost USB Adapter - Alfa Network APA-M25 Dual Band 2.4GHz/5GHz 8 / 10dBi high gain Directional Indoor Panel Antenna with RP-SMA Connector (Compare to Asus WL-ANT-157) - ALFA Network AWUS036ACM Long-Range Wide-Coverage Dual-Band AC1200 USB Wireless Wi-Fi Adapter w/High-Sensitivity External Antenna - Windows, MacOS & Kali Linux Supported --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/271070964-alfa-awus036achm-802-11ac-wifi-range-boost-usb-adapter](https://www.desertcart.in/products/271070964-alfa-awus036achm-802-11ac-wifi-range-boost-usb-adapter) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
