Wifi adapter atheros ar9271 not showing up on VIrtual box

Post by faizi »

i am running Kali Linux version (4.19.0-kali4-amd64) on virtual box (5.2.26 r128414). I am trying to connect atheros ar9271 and run it on Kali for penetration testing purposes. My host OS is windows 10. On my host, the adapter is working fine, but it is not showing up on virtual box. I have also downloaded the extension pack but to no avail. I have tried various solutions from many threads but nothing seems to work. Please help.

See USB Basics and Troubleshooting. Go through each step carefully, as if your math teacher was standing behind you. :lol: If you have trouble, post the command outputs in step 8.
