Hey guys, I recently made a Kali bootable USB with persistence and I can never get it to detect internal wifi cards (I've tested it with multiple computers). This makes it so that I can't connect to wifi unless I use an external wifi adapter. I'd really like to use the wifi built into my computer, but I can't figure out how. Please help!

Try "ifconfig" and choose your adapter 'e.g eth1' then type "ifconfig --your device here-- up".
e.g
root@kali:~# ifconfig
eth0: flags=4099<UP,BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

This maybe will work ;)
For wireless, the command is iwconfig, instead of ifconfig.
Thnx but i think ifconfig like iwconfig ,jst iwconfig display the adpters and ifconfig display adapters and connections ^_^.
iwconfig goes more in-depth with wireless settings I think, maybe they would both work for this.
u right ^_^ , but in this case iwconfig will not work with the command "up" , you can use it jst to display the adapters and then use the ifconfig command .
Ah, OK, thanks.
If that doesnt fix your problem, you should look into buying an external wifi adapter. The one's from Alfa are pretty good and most often work with linux, osx and windows.
