Adaptador Usb Wifi Chipset Atheros
Generally speaking, USB WiFi in Linux is a tricky thing to get right. Linux WiFi Warnings Read the Introduction in the Debian WiFi article before diving into Linux and USB WiFi devices.
UPDATE (2017): Before buying the TPLINK TL-WN722N, ask the seller for the version and/or chipset of the adapter. The newer WN722N (V2) does NOT support packet injection or monitor mode. The TP-LINK TL-WN722N is the #1 best adapter for Kali Linux. It outperforms all other adapters in terms of packet injection quality and success rate. Its range is average; however, I was able to boost it by swapping the antenna with an Alfa antenna. People report having issues with the WN722N on. For me, it worked just fine.
Also, this thing has a fat ass. It might not fit if your USB slots are close to each other (see image of it on my raspberry pi). Pro 5 los angeles. As seen in the image above, the TL-WN722N was able to capture 6 while the AWUS036NHA captured 3. If you're wondering why the AWUS036NH is not up there, it's because it wasn't able to capture any handshakes. I'm currently running more tests, I'll keep you guys posted. Verdict Overall. The TP-LINK TL-WN722N is my preferred wifi adapter for hacking in Kali Linux.

My second best goes to the ALFA AWUS036NHA (the black one). After having tested both ALFA adapters side by side, it showed me the most results. Today, I only use the AWUS036NH for wardriving sessions. Did you find this review helpful? Please let me know in the comments below! What I learned from this test: 1.
For effective wifi hacking, use multiple adapters, one specifically for listening and another for attacking. When listening for handshakes, always specify the channel the target is on.
If you're using airodump-ng, you can do this by adding '-c' then channel number (eg. Airodump-ng wlan0 -c #). Using an ALFA long-range antenna on the TL-WN722N will significantly improve its range and performance.

I use the tp-link myself. I also use the Alfa awus051nh, and a Hawking stick (ralink RT3070) After reading this, I think I’ll pick up your recommended Alfa for a good range radio, and I have the Alfa 7dbi panel antenna arriving tomorrow. I’m also really eying the AWUS036ACH Here’s one for you. When using my Alfa awus051nh on a Kali VM, it’s just fine. When using it plugged into a Raspberry Pi 3, it takes a total poop when testing injection. Finding one AP, and failing.
