# Supports

* Android 12/13

* MESH Support

* Monitor mode

* Frame injection

* Up to kernel v6.5+

... And a bunch of various wifi chipsets

# Howto build/install

1. Compile and install the driver:

```

cd rtl8188eus

make && sudo make install

```

2. Blacklist another drivers in order to use this one:

```

echo 'blacklist r8188eu' | sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf'

echo 'blacklist rtl8xxxu' | sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf'

```

3. `reboot` or remove all drivers related to RTL8188 and reload this one:

```

rmmod r8188eu rtl8xxxu 8188eu

modprobe 8188eu

```

# MONITOR MODE howto

Use these steps to enter monitor mode.

```

sudo airmon-ng check kill

sudo ip link set  down

sudo iw dev  set type monitor

```

Frame injection test may be performed with

(after kernel v5.2 scanning is slow, run a scan or simply an airodump-ng first!)

```

sudo aireplay-ng -9 

```

# NetworkManager configuration

Add these lines below to "NetworkManager.conf" and ADD YOUR ADAPTER MAC below [keyfile]

This will make the Network-Manager ignore the device, and therefore don't cause problems.

```

[device]

wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no

[ifupdown]

managed=false

[connection]

wifi.powersave=0

[main]

plugins=keyfile

[keyfile]

unmanaged-devices=mac:A7:A7:A7:A7:A7

```
