| As mentioned previously, the mac80211 drivers quite often support injection out of the box in recent kernels. The mac80211 drivers are improving very rapidly. Sometimes you want to try the latest mac80211 driver without recompiling your entire kernel. This is where [[http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download|Compat-Wireless]] comes in. You can now download a package which lets you compile and install the latest advances on the Linux wireless subsystem and get some of the latest drivers without having to recompile your entire kernel. This package adds mac80211, mac80211 drivers, and any new FullMAC driver which has had fairly recent updates. | As mentioned previously, the mac80211 drivers quite often support injection out of the box in recent kernels.
