    Anyone using RTL8192CU-based USB WiFi with aircrack/wifite in Kali Linux?

    If so, which linux/compat wireless driver are you using? I am asking because while the RTL8192CU is detected and wifite is running, WEP cracking is slow and does not complete, and WPA handshake are not happening.

    When testing with RTL8187 and AR9271 based USB WiFi, WEP cracking happens within minutes and WPA handshakes almost instantaneously, so clearly it is a driver issue.

    If you use the RTL8192CU (EDIMAX 7811, ALFA AWUS036NHR) are you using the default drivers in Kali or have you downloaded and installed an alternate driver to make aircrack/wifite work with it? If so, which version and download link?

    I'm kind of surprised that the RLT8192CU has been out for quite awhile, and yet it is still not completely working with pen testing tools in Backtrack or Kali.
