Hi Everybody,
Please be gentle... I'm an intermediate Linux user.
I'm setting up a Raspberry Pi with Kali Linux. I'm doing this remotely (I don't have physical access to the Pi) via SSH. The person on the other end has written the appropriate .img file to a SD Card and has got the Pi up and running. I'm using a VPN to get access to the remote network (on the other side of the planet!).
I can't seem to get a remote desktop session working with MobaXterm running on my office PC so I'm doing everything by good old fashioned typing!
My current need is to get the connected Alfa 036h working as wlan0.
It's plugged in :-
root@kali:/# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:8187 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8187 Wireless Adapter
...and the drivers are present :-

What is the most "efficient" way to get the Alfa 036H working without the help of a desktop?
