INDEX
Why the RTL8187 chip of the Alpha AWUS036H is famous
This chip launched in 2009 became very famous among hackers and fans of the development of WiFi security applications since it is a chip 100% compatible with all WiFi security tools, both those that use monitor mode and pack injection.
The driver for RTL8187 is included in all Linux distributions for WiFi security as the most popular of Kali Linux, WiFiWay or Backtrack.
Most of the most modern chipset are also compatible with monitor mode but do not work well with packet injection like the Realtek RTL8187 chip does.
All versions of the RTL8187 / RTL878x / or RTL8187L chip that carries the Alpha AWUS036H work in the same way and have the same compatibility. In spite of the antiquity it is still the reference chipset for WiFi audits since it was the first high power manufactured chips that reaches up to 1000mW (30dBm) and that still works very well with the fundamental tools for wifi hacking (suite aircrack-ng, mdk3 , beini, etc. )

Use for long distance WiFi antenna AWUS36H v5
If we want to establish a link even to more than 10 kilometers and we are going to use a Alfa AGA-2424T satellite dish to receive the 2.4Ghz frequency WiFi signal that emits a 10 km access point, we will need a very sensitive USB WiFi adapter and high power, which also does not suffer interference from other WiFi emissions along the way. The solution to this example is the Alpha AWUS036H V5 connected to the Alfa AGA2424T satellite dish.
The recommendation of this Wi-Fi card for long-distance connections is motivated precisely because when using the 2.4 Ghz type G frequency the wavelength is shorter and suffers much less interference than more modern adapters such as N. The WiFi wave G arrives further away and there is less signal loss using this G-type card than a similar N-type card, also if we use it with Linux at 1000mW output the result will be incredible.
If you live in a rural area and need to connect to a free WiFI Free that comes with little coverage, this is the most recommended card. In most cases we should not reject this WiFi G adapter at 54Mbps, thinking that the download speed will be low, since most of the current ADSL and fiber lines in Spain are between 10 and 50Mbps, and for normal use , (discarding the streaming video) the result with 54Mb will always be good.
