Unfortunately, this isn't compatible with a bunch of popular wireless cards, mostly from Realtek.

Realtek and Ubuntu - I have spent four years trying to get my wifi to work. Being tracked would be a bonus, the built in wifi on my Lenovo laptop is deaf to the world and will never get as far as MAC spoofing.

There's a work-around in the comment above.

Damn, I didn't know about these. Do you know what it is that makes them incompatible? And is there a list of cards you can avoid?

Also, some Broadcoms in Linux before 4.9.
