Hi

Kali does not detect my Wifi adapter (Intel 8265/8275 according to lspci) at install time. I manually (sudo dpkg -i) installed the .deb version of the iwlwifi firmware. I have the following output of "dmesg | grep iwl":


[ 3.653412] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)

[ 3.884118] ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'iwl-mvm-rs'

However, the Wifi still does not work. What further steps are needed?

Thanks in advance
