Hi guys! I have a question about installing the driver for the TP-Link TL-WN722N v2/v3 [Realtek RTL8188EUS] adapter to enable monitor mode.
i’ve successfully installed it on both Kali and Linux Mint Debian on virtual machines and it works fine but when i try to do the same on Kubuntu it just spits out a LOT or error codes.
This is what I’ve been using to get it working on Kali and Linux mint Debian.
sudo apt install -y build-essential dkms git linux-headers-$(uname -r)
git clone GitHub - aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus: RealTek RTL8188eus WiFi driver with monitor mode & frame injection support
cd rtl8188eus
sed -i ‘s/CONFIG_MONITOR = n/CONFIG_MONITOR = y/’ Makefile
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe 8188eu
sudo reboot
iwconfig
sudo ip link set wlan0 down
sudo iw dev wlan0 set type monitor
sudo ip link set wlan0 up
iwconfig
sudo modprobe -r 8188eu
sudo modprobe 8188eu
echo “blacklist r8188eu” | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf
I’d be more than happy to post the output but there’s a LOT of stuff.
