Hi,
So I downloaded D-Link DWA-182 (which is a usb wifi dongle) drivers from here because I require monitor mode support under linux. However, when I run

Code:

make

in the directory it produces these errors:

Code:

Any ideas? I have installed linux headers for my kernel/distribution and I have no idea what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Perhaps the driver is incompatible with your kernel. On the page you reference, I see somebody commenting

Quote:

Unfortunately, it doesn't compile on recent kernels

Find out if it supports your kernel, and if not find a version that does. Or wait until Realtek creates one.
