USB WiFi card W-722N firmware error

[Froggs]

Hello, Kali community.
I really have problems with installing my usb TP-link WN-722N card's firmware and drivers.

Using Kali linux 1.1.0a (x64bit) on VirtualBox v4.3.26(Oracle).

Got a clean install of Kali, downloaded the additional 650MB. of program files and "add-ons" (i got a request after first-booting the OS).
So, after running lsusb i get:

root@kalilinux:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0cf3:9271 Atheros Communications, Inc. AR9271 802.11n
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 80ee:0021 VirtualBox USB Tablet
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

with iwconfig

root@kalilinux:~# iwconfig
eht0 no wireless extensions.

lo no wireless extensions.

airmon-ng doesn't show anything as well

root@kalilinux:~# airmon-ng
PHY     Interface      Driver       Chipset

Reading this: https://forum.aircrack-ng.org/index.php?topic=753.0 i understood, that i don't need to install any drivers, right?

So, everything should be alright... But it's not.

dmesg shows me that:

New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=9271
usb 1-1: ath9k_htc: Firmware htc_9271.fw requested
usbcore: registered new interface driver ath9k_htc
usb 1-1: firmware: direct-loading firmware htc_9271.fw
usb 1-1: ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_9271.fw download failed
usb 1-1: ath9k_htc USB layer deinitialized
root@kalilinux:~#

When i got into /lib/firmware/ i can clearly see that there are two files: ar9271.fw and htc_9271.fw .
I just can't figure it out how to "install the firmware" of my N-722N. Already spent over 30 hours over that problem.

Any help would be appreciated! And have a good day!

i got the solution here

note: make sure you have proper kernel and another dependency based on that documentation

Thanks, I've actually found out the problem and therefore the solution for it.
It was Oracle virtualbox that was causing my errors. I installed VMPlayer (another VBox) and I got my problems decided.
Thanks for sharing your help as well !
