Hi all,

I'm using VirtualBox and I'm having Tenda USB WiFi Adapter. When i plug in it works great on the Host (Ubuntu 16.04). What i want to do, is use this USB WiFi Adapter on a Guest VM (Again Ubuntu). Not as adapter or Ethernet connection but as WiFi Connection. It works great as Ethernet, but i want to use as WiFi so i can scan the SSID etc...

I have install the extended package for Virtualbox. The problem is that in the USB Settings from the VirtualBox i don't see any device.

Any idea on how to manage this kind of settings ?
The USB is Tenda device and i have no additional info on it.

Thanks in advanced !
