Rosewill RNX-N600UBE driver problem

[bumpitup]

Hi everybody

I've searched the internet for best supported wifi cards for kali linux.
After I've read this thread: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.p...Wireless-Cards
I bought a Rosewill RNX-N600UB.

But I don't get it to work with Kali Linux 1.0.6 (virtual machine).

Try installing from repos: firmware-ralink

See if it works.

Hi maverick35

Thanks for your help. I've already read this sites but I'll do it again.
I'll give you feedback as soon as I have back my card.
