Realtek RTL8812BU Driver for Kali Linux
Hello all,
Just felt I'd throw this out there as I had this issue so surely someone else will too.
How to get the Realtek RTL8812BU driver installed on Kali (Kernel 4.19.28-2 at time of writing)
From a 100% fresh install, connected to the internet (via NAT Network or whatever), run the following commands:
Code:
apt update
apt install bc -y
git clone https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.3.1_27678.20180430_COEX20180427-5959.git
cd rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.3.1_27678.20180430_COEX20180427-5959
VER=$(sed -n 's/\PACKAGE_VERSION="\(.*\)"/\1/p' dkms.conf)
sudo rsync -rvhP ./ /usr/src/rtl88x2bu-${VER}
sudo dkms add -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo dkms build -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo dkms install -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER}
sudo modprobe 88x2bu
After running all that, you should see your 8812BU in ifconfig and you should be able to monitor and packet inject with it.
Note: With time, the author of the driver may make a new major release, so be sure to check for a new repo at https://github.com/cilynx/
Cheers guys

Hi Guys,
I am running into the exact same issue any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
I hope it will help you with enabling monitor mode.
I think you can also use this method to enable monitor mode -
Code:
root@kali:~#ifconfig wlan0 down
root@kali:~#airmon-ng check kill
root@kali:~#iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
root@kali:~#ifconfig wlan0 up
root@kali:~#airodump-ng --band a --channel 2 -- write output wlan0
Feather you can see if interface is in monitor mode by typing this:
root@kali:~#iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 is an [interface]
