Hi all, I've got this big problem using nmap in my laptop, it runs extremely slow, a normal scan takes normaly more than 10/15 minutes, I'm experiencing this issue since the first time I installed nmap on Windows.
I recently installed Kali, but this problem persist, I think that is because of the Wi-Fi card because if I try to run the same nmap scan inside a virtual machine it executes perfectly in less than 10 seconds.
Here are my specs:
