An intern proposes using a pure client-mode USB dongle for deauthentication testing in a city lab. What capability concern should be raised?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
A client-only dongle is like a sedan with no tow hitch—you can drive, but you cannot pull the trailer the lab needs. Monitor and injection ride on chipset and driver support, not on plugging in any Wi-Fi stick. If the hardware cannot do those modes, the deauth test plan stalls.
Full Explanation
Authorized injection and monitor workflows require adapters whose chipset and driver expose those capabilities. Pure client-oriented dongles may associate in managed mode yet lack reliable monitor or injection support. Capability assumptions should be validated against hardware and driver realities before lab scheduling.
