    How install Alfa-AWUS036H wireless driver in kali linux - rt3070 chipset

    i've downloaded latest kali linux (amd64) and installed it on vmware workstation 10.
    after installation i upgraded kali's kernel headers to the latest version.(now i have v3.16)


    apt-get update && apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
    now i want to install my Alfa-AWUS036H wireless usb device to kali.
    my device chipset is : rt3070. -> ralink (mediatek) company

    i went to this site for download latest ver of this chip :
    http://www.mediatek.com/en/downloads...t5572-usb-usb/

    when you check extracted files of downloded driver you see many conditions for kernel 2.4 or 2.6 versions (mean it's an old driver and i think should change some codes in that project).

    please help me step by step to install my wireless usb device on kali.

    i also found this thread with no help :
    http://askubuntu.com/questions/14876...ireless-driver
    when should i run this command (and why rt5370sta instead of rt3070):

    modprobe rt5370sta

    EDIT 1 :
    What did i do?

    1-

    apt-get update && apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
    2-
    go to this path /os/linux/config.mk and change these lines:

    HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y
    HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
    3-
    go to this file /os/linux/rt_linux.c and change these :

    /* pOSFSInfo->fsuid = current_fsuid(); */
    /* pOSFSInfo->fsgid = current_fsgid(); */

    pOSFSInfo->fsuid = *(int *) & current_fsuid();
    pOSFSInfo->fsgid = *(int *) & current_fsgid();
    i did these changes because of some errors during make command. did i do that right?

    4-
    make
    and it's result : http://textuploader.com/o49y

    5-
    make install
    and it's result : http://textuploader.com/o49b



    EDIT 2 :
    My Problems :


    1-after update kali's kernel headers and connect usb device to kali i have ERROR for 802.11g WLAN usb wireless driver and nothing happens.

    2-
    after these commands

    make && make install
    a file is copied to /etc/Wireless/RT2870STA/RT2870STA.dat
    why RT2870 instead of RT3070?
    also i had many warnings about unsigned variable and some errors during installation(before step 3) and because of those warnings and errors i did step 3 and after reboot and connect usb device to kali i still have ERROR for 802.11g WLAN usb wireless driver and nothing happens.

    which parts of driver's project should i change and how can i load driver?
    should i load driver manually or after connect it loads auto?
    should i use X86 OS and change my OS?

    thanks in advane

    i test
    make && make install
    for extracted files with no help.
    during "make" proccess i had many warnings about "unsigned variable" and after "make install" and reboot and connect device nothing happens.

    I think you meant AWUS036NH. AWUS036H has RTL8187L.

    RT3070 is supported out of the box by Kali via the rt2800usb driver which properly supports monitor mode and packet injection.
