Does it support monitor mode? Packet injection?

Yes, it supports monitor mode, packet injection and AP mode. This is pretty much the gold standard for Linux dual band adpaters.

Anyone use with a M1 Mac?

It is not compatible with M1 Macs at this time. It is also not supported for Mac OS 11. A Mac OS 11 driver is in the works but we are not yet sure it will support M1 or just Intel.

Why doesn't this work with a linux vm?

You need to install the drivers. Use the Alfa website and follow the instructions provided to install the drivers on the flavor of Linux you're using in your VM.

does it work with metasploit?

Yes, will work. Install the driver in the OS where meta is installed

Great bit of kit once set up, but be prepared for some technical setup to get it working.

كويسه جدا انصح اي حد بي شراء هذا المنتج

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

Sehr gut geeignet als Einstieg ins WLAN-Pentesting

Ich habe den ALFA AWUS036ACH USB-C WLAN-Adapter als Ergänzung für meine ersten Schritte im WLAN-Pentesting gekauft – und er erfüllt genau diesen Zweck. Mit Kali Linux funktioniert der Adapter einwandfrei, inklusive Monitor-Modus und Paket-Injection. Besonders hilfreich: die starke Signalreichweite durch die beiden 5 dBi-Antennen – deutlich besser als integrierte Laptop-WLANs. Die Installation unter Windows braucht etwas Handarbeit (Treiber manuell von der ALFA-Website), funktioniert dann aber stabil. Verarbeitung ist robust, USB‑C-Anschluss praktisch. Fazit: Für Einsteiger ins WLAN-Pentesting absolut empfehlenswert. Gute Leistung, stabile Verbindung und kompatibel mit gängigen Tools. Kleine Abzüge für den nötigen Treiber-Download unter Windows, aber insgesamt klare 4,5 bis 5 Sterne.
