If you are are taking "Learn Ethical Hacking From Scratch | Udemy" by Zaid Sabih and using Kali 2022 x64 Customized by zSecurity 1.0.7 and TP-Link TL-WN722N v2/v3 [Realtek RTL8188EUS], you might find this helpful. In the begining, I am able to enter monitor mode. However after a few days, I found out it doesn't allow to enter monitor mode. I think TP-Link TL-WN722N v2/v3 have automatically updated its driver. Then, I find a video from David Bombal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYnjMiTTdms) but still can't perfectly solve the issue. However, I find below steps work fine for me.
- sudo apt update
- sudo apt upgrade
- sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
- reboot
- sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
- sudo apt install bc
- sudo apt-get install build-essential
- sudo apt-get install libelf-dev
- sudo apt install dkms
- sudo rmmod r8188eu.ko
- git https://github.com/drygdryg/rtl8188eus (This works for me 😂)
- cd rtl8188eus
- sudo -i
- echo 'blacklist r8188eu'|sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf'
- reboot
- cd rtl8188eus
- sudo make && make install
- reboot
Like https://github.com/cccooo/rtl8812au-centos-7.6, forked from aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus and modified for CentOS 7.9 as CentOS Kernel 3.10 contains many code from 4.x
- Android 7
- MESH Support
- Monitor mode
- Frame injection
- Up to kernel v5.8+ ... And a bunch of various wifi chipsets
- You will need to blacklist another driver in order to use this one.
echo 'blacklist r8188eu'|sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf'
- Reboot
- cd rtl8188eus
make && sudo make install
- Reboot in order to blacklist and load the new driver/module.
Use these steps to enter monitor mode.
$ sudo airmon-ng check kill
$ sudo ip link set <interface> down
$ sudo iw dev <interface> set type monitor
Frame injection test may be performed with (after kernel v5.2 scanning is slow, run a scan or simply an airodump-ng first!)
$ aireplay -9 <interface>
Add these lines below to "NetworkManager.conf" and ADD YOUR ADAPTER MAC below [keyfile] This will make the Network-Manager ignore the device, and therefore don't cause problems.
[device]
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no
[ifupdown]
managed=false
[connection]
wifi.powersave=0
[main]
plugins=keyfile
[keyfile]
unmanaged-devices=mac:A7:A7:A7:A7:A7
