Trouble with WiFi Drivers!!

[rishabh]

I have installed Kali 10.0.6. 64 bit alongside windows 8 on HP Pavilion 15 n011tu(Ubuntu Certified ) .

I guess my wifi is : Realtek RTL8106E-2 firmware, version 0.0.1 (rtl_nic/rtl8106e-2.fw)

I got some .deb file regarding it, but it didn't worked .

First, no "I guess", you have to make sure of wifi model.

Type: lspci | grep -i network

Then please, post it. You have to be sure of the wifi model.

You might end up using the wrong firmware.

Also use: iwconfig to see if wifi card is present.
