[Invalid] wireless network adapter problem

[Dash166]

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I hope you help me. Well, I will start. I have a problem with the wireless network device, TP-LINK WN722N. I will mention what is currently established:

• the usb extension the updated virtual box version
• I have established in usb 2.0 (EHCI)
• I have the Realtek 802.11n NIC filter added
• enable the network adapter for usb use

Well I have everything mentioned I run and the wireless network adapter is not shown. Also in devices the Realtek filter is selected and still does not show entry by command iwconfig and just recognize:

• eth0
• lo

command entry, lsusb recognizes it:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2357: 010c TP-Link TL-WN722N v2

but does not show the wireless network adapter.

It is also normal that in the virtual box network that I established as a tp-link network adapter I switched to my internet via connected xd cable?

Well that's it, I hope you can help me

The only way that a guest will see a WiFi adapter, is if you use a USB WiFi, and capture it in the guest. It seems that you've done exactly that:

lsusb recognizes it:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2357: 010c TP-Link TL-WN722N v2

That shows that VirtualBox has done its job correctly. The problem then is with your guest OS. Can it recognize the device? Are there drivers for it?

Hi, well in that case I don't have the driver but I also have a problem with the driver when trying to install look:

I don't have the driver

Well, there's not that much that VirtualBox can do about it... Just because an OS/program that runs in the context of VirtualBox has a problem, it doesn't make it a VirtualBox problem necessarily. You're having an issue that has nothing to do with VirtualBox, so my suggestion would be to treat it as such, as a native problem with the OS of the guest. I would suggest to visit the Kali forums and ask there about your compilation issues, they are in a better position to help you.

Marking as [Invalid].

Oh Ok thank you very much I thought it was a problem with the virtual box extension as you mentioned it should be a driver problem
