Hey there, welcome to Linux.org! I'm a big fan of Kali Linux, so decided to create a forum section for it here on Linux.org.. Kali Linux is built as a pentesting distribution - and it is assumed that you have decent enough Linux experience to be able to troubleshoot things like network...

What’s Different About Kali Linux? Kali Linux is specifically geared to meet the requirements of professional penetration testing and security auditing. To achieve this, several core changes have been implemented in Kali Linux which reflect these needs: Network services disabled by default: Kali...

If you are unfamiliar with Linux generally, if you do not have at least a basic level of competence in administering a system, if you are looking for a Linux distribution to use as a learning tool to get to know your way around Linux, or if you want a distro that you can use as a general purpose desktop installation, Kali Linux is probably not what you are looking for.

Even for experienced Linux users, Kali can pose some challenges.

As I stated as what I quoted, you shouldn't be using Kali if you have no experience with Linux because as a Kali user you are expected to be able to solve your own problems. You first need to see if your system sees the device in your system, is a pci or usb wireless card?

lspci -nn | grep -i net
lsub

If your system recognizes the device, the next step is finding the correct driver for it since it isn't showing up as a wireless network device in your networkmanager.
