Hi=2C I understand you want to fix it in 9.1. The reason that I was using 8.1 is = that I want to see how injection works there=2C to then somehow clone this = to a distribution based on 8.1 which does not support injection. But I can = install 9.1 alongside to test an updated driver in the future for sure. The hardware is capable of injection=2C listed at the aircrack-ng website a= s a recommendation etc. http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=3Dcompatibility_drivers=20 http://softwaregeneration.org/alfa-network-awus036h-wifi/=20 Is it complicated to add ahdemo support?
