Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter. For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration.
After I looked for solutions on the internet I found that because it is running on Live USB with persistence even after the update the kernel that Linux will boot on is the one from the downloaded ISO. My wireless adapter is TPLink T2U and I can't install the driver mt7610uwifistav3002dpo_20130916.
This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own. To receive this Complete Guide absolutely free.
Welcome to the forum I have a usb adapter with the same chip, unfortunately, the driver for it, to my knowledge, has not yet been included in the mainline kernel because of, from what I understand, poor quality code from Mediatek. This is why your adapter wasn't working out of the box. What you will need to do is compile Mediatek's driver, preferably the one from if your kernel version is at least 3.19, (if not, use one.) This (compiling) is something that folks new to Linux can find difficult, just as a heads up. Instructions on how to do this can be found although I'm not sure if it will work for Kali. I did find a Kali thread concerning this (on Ubuntu's forum] although I doubt that it will be of any help.
You might want to seek additional help on Kali's forum, as well. If this is something you don't want to mess with (and I wouldn't blame you, I try very hard not to touch stuff like this myself ) another suggestion would be to purchase an adapter that already works 'out of the box,' for most, if not all, (Linux) distributions. If your version of Kali is between 1.0.0 and 1.1.0a, adapter might work very well. I have this adapter as well and I've never had a problem with it in the year or so I've had it. Hope this helps.
I installed Kali Linux on my Sony Vaio laptop (model number SVF142C1WW), but I had no wireless out of the box. Ethernet works fine, and I can connect to wireless networks normally from Windows running on the same machine. I found on Google which suggested I install the compatible wireless driver. I downloaded it from, extracted it to ~/Desktop and ran the following commands: $ cd desktop $ cd filenameofthatextracted folder $ make unload $ make load After these commands, my wireless seems to be recognized (see iwconfig output below), but I can't see any available wireless networks. Also, the driver disappears after restarting, and I have to run the commands again and reinstall to get the NIC to show up in iwconfig again.

See, while installing Kali Linux this is the menu you get in the beginning: Kali - boot Non Persistent Mode Kali - Boot Persistent Kali - Failsafe Kali Forensics - No Drive or Swap Mount Kali Graphical install Kali Text install I went into the option Kali Graphical Install to install Kali Linux. I believed to run live Kali, and I have to go in Kali - Boot Persistent. I went into that, and I got Kali desktop.
