Average product
Package received was intact & looks originalHowever in comparison to other Alfa adapter (previous models) , the WiFi range was not good enough & there is some conflict with the driver installation of previous Alfa models. Also Kali didn't recognize this device. However my Kali is 2018.1 . Shall update after installing 2018.4i am yet to find a suitable driver for my kali - its not yet recognized

Works with Kali Linux (VMWare as well a Raspberry Pi)
There is no need to install additional drivers for the adapter in Kali, whether it be VMWARE or Raspberry Pi 4 (Kali Pi). The WIFI signal is strong and covers long range. Monitor Mode and Packet Injection is working for both VMWARE and Raspberry Pi. If you feel ARP Poisoning is slow when using it with VMWARE, then its not the fault of the adapter. Virtualization is carried out by a limited number of CPU cores, that is why its slow. Try it in Dual Boot. The adapter is great for learning and practicing network security. I am overall impressed and will recommend this to you guys. I have added all these details as I felt that this thread is not very well updated with the current support for the adapter in Kali.
