Hi,

I install via sudo apt install realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms and it works on Kali 4.11.

When i start capturing. airodump-ng wlan0. It captures for 2-3 minutes and then all data dissapears. With a message saying "interface wlan0 down "

CH 13 ][ Elapsed: 3 mins ][ 2017-08-17 09:31 ][ interface wlan0 down BSSID PWR Beacons #Data, #/s CH MB ENC CIPHER AUTH ESSID BSSID STATION PWR Rate Lost Frames Probe

but i check iwconfig and

eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions. wlan0 IEEE 802.11 Mode:Monitor Frequency:2.417 GHz Tx-Power=18 dBm Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off

it is still up in monitor mode.

That issue should be reported to the original driver. Airodump-ng only takes what it gets from the interface.

In addition to that bug report, you probably want to include the useful part of dmesg which might indicate something wrong when you get the message "interface wlan0 down". You can always try to use a powered USB hub, your machine might not be able to supply enough power to the adapter.
