What is the Issue?: It is now a week after i had received my awus036NHR, and after much trying and searching I am still unable to get it fully functional in my main os (bt5R3, Gnome, 32bit, encrypted persistent usb install) and in the virtualbox xia, THe main problem is getting it to work in backtrack, after that getting it to work in xiao will be much easier for me. The problem is; there is almost no good documentation about how to get it working, or the documentation is very old.So my questions areWhat is the most up to date, best functioning driver/tutorialI should focus on to get my card working with maximam functionality? As of now, will I be able to get the card fully functional in BT5? and in Xiaopan? (aircrack, normal internet connecting, reaver, N, etc)As of now, what functions will i not get working yet? (How are your awus036NHR functionality?) I really hope someone could point me in the right direction, or even better, could help me set it up over teamviewer of VNC.If someone would like i could share my e-mail/skype/whatever with him to ease the communication. When I get it working i will make a detailed post about how i done it, so others will be able to imitate me. I hope someone can figure this all out for me, many thanks, Bacterialbag Ultimately, What are you trying to achieve?: Hack WPS with Reaver and Inflator What is your wireless device model?: AWUS036NHR rtl8818ru Operating System: Windows If you used a Live CD or USB How did you create it?: I have BT5R3 installed. run xiao in there. What version: Other
So what is or are the issues? Injection not working? the drivers are not working? any error messages?
Injection is very buggy, cant connect to internet, when connecting wpa it says; wrong password. Reaver is not working. deauth and auth problems, airodump wont capture anything. everything is buggy actually. Mr Penguin, dit you manage to get your card working in BT5r3?. I hope so... thanks for the response.
I haven't upgraded to R3 yet but will within the week and run a few tests and try to replicate your issue. In the meantime this thread might be of help to you as people have tested the device: AWUS036NHR v AWUS036NH Comparison I should also state that Beini 1.2.3 has been reported to work really well, see this post: AWUS036NHR Not Being Detected With Live CD In Beini 1.2.3. Off hand I think Xiaopan 0.4.1 has also been reported to work well, it has been confirmed somewhere in the forums. Just another thing, is it a genuine ALFA card?
100% genuine. I already freshly installed BT5R3. I would be really really really thankfull if you could install R3 gnome 32, and try and share how you get the card fully functional from there. When u install it from scratch the first thing you will notice is that: you cannot connect (WPA) networks, injection test will tell you it is working,but always 0%, and airmon-ng show you that the chipset is "unknown" and the loaded driver is: rtl8192cu - [phy1]. (which is not the correct driver). My weekend started today, and I will spend my free time trying to get the awus fully functional. If I could help you with anything, or you need any information from me regarding this issue, feel free to ask here, I will be checking this place allot. Also Crackerz Wave, I followed 2 different tutorials about installing the drivers via compat-wireless. With both drivers the card was still far from stable/fully functional. I will try to install the latest 3.5.1 CW drivers tomorrow. I got one question though; most people patch their compat wireless files to get the drivers fully functionality (injection etc.) I can however not find any aircrack patches for 3.5.1. I guess using patches from a older version will screw things up big time, am I right? Should I just install the standard CW drivers? I hope to hear from you guys soon, and Penguin, will you be updating to R3 this weekend? That would be great, I will be following you on foot! hehe. R3 contains some great new stuff, i like the new exploitation tools tab (physical exploitation) the most, contains some great stuff!!
I will ask my girlfriend to download it for me, so mid week to Friday hopefully. i only get 3GB of downloads a month. It sucks. oh and thanks for the compliments!
After installing the latest Compat Wireless drivers (with older version patches) I managed to get injection working, and am able to connect to networks using my NHR. I can not however, crack WEP, using aircrack or WPA using reaver. I hope penguin will get his R3 soon. thunbs up for your GF. --- Double Post Merged, 14 Sep 2012 --- Whats ur status on getting the AWUS to work in BT5R3?
Hi all, Im about to buy my Alfa adaptor for B5R3, which would you say is the best to get? one that would work for sure with aircrack and reaver est. ?? Would aprichiate any advice, this is the card im thinking about getting... Alfa AWUS036NHR - High-Gain 2000mw 2W 802.11 B/G/N Wireless USB
you may try this version of beini http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=67519&uk=3003409850 it working with reaver using minipwep please test
Hi guys! I would also be really grateful if someone came up with a solution - have this adapter, since i thought my old awus036h died. It has wpa problems, as all passwords seem to be false, and it CAN see clients connected to networks, but ONLY if they are unencrypted (Found this out by chance when i monitored a Adhoc printer network called "SETUP" and it showed me the connected client) The reception of the adapter is great, im getting 30+ wireless networks here so it would be a shame not to be able to use its powers! The adapter is still flawed with BT5 R3 Gnome 32bit; i am booting from a nonpermanent thumbdrive - i haven't tried any other one yet (with beini i could not get it to run at all) Also i did not know how to install the compat-wireless (what version to choose and what special things i might need to consider when doing so) As some report it working in R3 i would really appreciate a tutorial on how to get it to run... Regards, DL
My GF downloaded the KDE 32bit version of BT3. So far injection is working (very slow though), minidwep is working and inflator / reaver is working. Haven't tried to connect to any networks yet. I am going to download the latest Ubuntu and create another distro with all the wireless hacking tools.
Any luck with anyone on this? I'm running bt5r3 64 gnome, I thought this card was supposed to be fully functional and plug n play, it's far from that!

The entry looks like this: Code: Select All /* 8188RU in Alfa AWUS036NHR */ {RTL_USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDER_ID_REALTEK, 0x817f, rtl92cu_hal_cfg)} So I patched the file, compiled & installed it and everything worked!
