Hi guys so i just installed kali yesterday, Im dual booting, I partitioned the disk and let kali use 50gb of my HDD. So around 5 minutes into using the web on kali, it completely stops working (It says im connected but no web pages or anything load and when i try to go to network settings it says Its unavailable please contact your vendor or something and wlan0 and everything is gone. I am using the Realtek RTL8191SU Wireless LAN 802.11n USB 2.0 Network Adapter.
There is no issues atoll using windows, so i think its drivers. I have the disk how do i install them on linux?
I am running 64 bit kali linux 2.0 (not sure about the other stuff)
Any help is appreciated thanks
