How To : Using AR5523 Wifi chipset on Kali
Hello everyone !
I'm new here and this is my first post in the forum , and in this thread i will explain how to use ar5523 wireless chipset with Kali-Linux because i had this problem for about 2 months until i finally got it working !
Well lets start ! , This is an Installation guide from Debian Wiki :
https://wiki.debian.org/ar5523
But sometimes after you finish these steps and reboot your system it doesn't work ! when you check on "lsusb" it shows that there IS an AR5523 device plugged in but does not have firmware !
To resolve this you will need this file :
http://verein.lst.de/~hch/ar5523.tgz
and install it using the following commands (without the hashtags) :
# tar xvf ar5523.tgz ar5523/uath-ar5523.bin --strip 1
# mv uath-ar5523.bin /lib/firmware
and you should be done !
Hopefully this helped!
P.S / I tried to enter the commands into a CODE area but it doesn't seem to work
