Wi-Fi isn't displayed (Kali Linux)












0















I'm facing a well-known problem (As I found everyone complains about it) that I really couldn't get over. I installed Kali Linux along with Windows 7 (dual boot) and once it's installed I couldn't enable the WiFi so I inserted an external WiFi-adapter and they (the networks) did show up but I couldn't connect to any of them.



By the way, while installing (Kali) I skipped 2 steps and I'm not sure if they have relevant relationship with the connection. They are:



1- firmware files (rtl_nic/rtl8168g-3.fw) didn't load them.
2- there's something called "network mirror" I guess
