wlan0 is not there in kali linux

[faizmalik]

hey i just installed kali linux few days ago and i can't run wifi in it
when i type iwconfig it only show eth and lo it doesn't show wlan0
by the way i am running it in dual boot system

 

[arochester]

It might not be called wlan0 any more, it might be named something else.

What is the output from

sudo ip a

 

[faizmalik]

Sir the output is this

Are you running it on a physical machine or on a virtual machine?

On physical machine

 

[f33dm3bits]

On physical machine

Can you share the output of:

lspci -nn | grep -i net

This is the output

Plug in an ethernet kabel so that you do have a network connection so you can install a package, activate the non-free repos then install firmware-realtek and then reboot.

If that doesn't work try compiling and installing the driver yourself.

i think none free should be available as defualt check with text editor or look output
using cat :

/etc/apt/sources.list

Monitor mode in this

 

[f33dm3bits]

Your wireless network card has to support monitor mode.

No need to adress me so formaly, leave out the sir. Any wireless adapter that supports monitor mode but with these you know for sure they will have Kali support.
