Wireless cards:
Q: What wireless card(s) should i buy, which works best with ASC?
- Depends on your needs. If you want to be able to inject 802.11b frames, you have to use a Prism2 based card. There are many different ones out there. We can suggest http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?products_id=43&osCsid=2f60c459e85b5e055ac381dd063c2569 it is a card with 200mW transmit power.
- For having a combination of a/b/g you can buy a WAG511v2 from Netgear
- For 802.11 b/g you can also buy Zyxel Zyair G-100
Q: What USB wireless dongles should i buy, which works best with ASC?
- We cannot say which one is really working in every environment, some where reported to work stable on a specific laptop, and another user told us that it is not working.
Q: Is my XYZ broadcom chip based card supported in ASC?
- No, broadcom does not provide the nesscessairy chip information to the public, so no real driver can be developed. As long there is not driver, we will not include it.
Q: My card works with NDIS wrapper, why is it not working with ASC?
- Even when your card would work you cannot use it for scanning / audit, because they do not support rfmon / monitoring mode. So buy another one, sorry.
BLuetooth Dongles:
Q: What USB bluetooth dongle should i buy, which works best with ASC?
- Well there are many dongles working fine, generally i can suggest to buy a class 1 dongle, which means a range of 100m. Here are some working examples:
- Linksys USSBBT100 (100m/Class 1)
- Acer BT-700 (100m/Class 1)
- Acer BU2-12J201151 (10m/Class 2)
