    Alfa AWUS036ACH problematic driver

    Hello guys!

    First of all, I know there are many bug reports about Realtek RTL8812au and suggestions to buy another adapter but it's still the only 5 GHz Alfa antenna that you can buy on amazon. Some people said that AWUS051NH and AWUS052NHS were working out of stock but they are no longer for sale.

    I'm using Kali VM 64-bit on VMware Workstation 15.

    1) First, I tried: https://zsecurity.org/installing-dri...ket-injection/.

    Code:
    apt-get install realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms
    It uses the default driver but packet injection didn't work with it. That's how I tested monitor mode and packet injection:

    Code:
    ifconfig
    ifconfig wlan0 down
    airmon-ng check kill
    iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
    ifconfig wlan0 up
    airodump-ng wlan0
    aireplay-ng -9 wlan0
    2) There was a GitHub user who had same antenna and he recommended using https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au/tree/v5.2.20. Here is the issue: https://github.com/v1s1t0r1sh3r3/airgeddon/issues/201.

    Code:
    17:51:44  Trying broadcast probe requests...
    17:51:44  Injection is working!
    17:51:46  Found 5 APs
    Packet injection worked with this driver.

    The problem is that it doesn't work with Fluxion/Airgeddon because of the driver. I'm not quite sure why that is happening but it's probably worth mentioning the stations appear to be fetched a bit slowly. I have AWUS036NHA and it works flawlessly there.

    Fluxion does Evil Twin attack. Handshaking worked fine but it everytime gets stuck at Starting Captive Portal access point service...

    Those are the fluxion versions that I tried:
    1) Official repo (version 5.9): https://github.com/FluxionNetwork/fluxion)
    2) version 3.11: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MPp...tC8M154a1/view
    3) version 2.9: https://github.com/wi-fi-analyzer/fluxion

    A few GitHub issues:
    https://github.com/FluxionNetwork/fluxion/issues/579
    https://github.com/FluxionNetwork/fluxion/issues/212
    https://github.com/v1s1t0r1sh3r3/airgeddon/issues/242

    As a result, Captive Portal didn't start.

    I tried airgeddon as some people suggested. Its Evil Twin worked only with sniffer but not with captive portal which is kinda useless.

    My question is: are there people who managed to get that attack ongoing with that antenna/chipset? Can you recommend me different drivers/software like fluxion/airgeddon or something else which will make that antenna work without problems?

    If worst comes to worst, I'm also open to new antenna recommendations, but I would prefer to use the current one.

    i am having the same issues with the AWUS036ACH when i use Fluxion or Lazy script but those 2 scripts works just fine on my AWUS036NH and AWUS036H. i think that the NHA is just not supported yet. i saw the NH for sale on Amazon canada for 40$ CAD
