airodump-ng is a passive dumper (it receive packets), while hcxdumptool is active (send packets; packet injection). That means, you can't compare airdodump-ng (passive) with hcxdumptool (active). The driver must(!) support packet injection, but it looks like it doesn't. And following the link you posted, I can't find any useful information that this driver supports full packet injection. Also wikidevi doesn't have information about this driver: https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Rtl8xxxu
Supported modes STA (Station) mode: supported IBSS (Ad-Hoc) mode: unknown AP (Master) mode: unknown Mesh (802.11s) mode: unknown P2P mode: unknown Monitor mode: unknown Packet injection: unknown
BTW: Only TP-Link TL-WN822N v1/v2 support monitor mode and(!) packet injection. There are tons of issues about v3 and higher like this here: https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver/issues/88 and more here: https://github.com/schollz/find-lf/issues/16 http://keep-it-sim.blogspot.com/2013/08/compatible-wireless-network-adapters.html https://www.raymond.cc/blog/best-compatible-usb-wireless-adapter-for-backtrack-5-and-aircrack-ng/ There are also tx power issues running this driver: https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver/issues/80
Closed, because it is a driver issue and not related to hcxdumptool.
Hi. I bought another adapter with chipset rtl8192eu. I installed mange's driver and am able to use airodump. It works ok to capture packages. But it hangs when I use hcxdumptools.
