Hello Community,

I searched the Web for days to solve the problem:
I can't connect to any wireless networks on Kali!
I am a bit confused, too, 'cause many other people solved this problem quickly.
I tried to install several Broadcom Drivers, but could not install and start it.
iwconfig lists following:
eth0 no wireless extensions

lo no wireless extensions

A device like wlan0, as I know it from other Linux OS, does'nt exist.
I think my problem is not to find a driver, it's to install them.
If you have any suggestions for a good Kali Driver, please post them to me!

etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://http.kali.org/ /kali main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/ /wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian wheezy main
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ stable main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free

(I tried installing Synaptic/Software-Center. I hoped I can install ndiswrapper then, to use the same drivers like Windows 8.1, I could'nt install ndiswrapper anyway.)

My LAN connection works fine, but in Network Settings there is no WIFI Option listed.


Do you have any solutions?
A way to install synaptic or software-center or ndiswrapper would also help.

I know there are dozens of instructions and ways to solve the problem.I tried almost each of them.Without success!
You are my last chance!


I am not very comfortable in using Terminal, but I will do my very best to get comfortable with it.

Thank you!
