I have been googling (yes its a verb) the last 4 days on this topic and I haven't really been able to find a how-to. I installed Nethunter from scratch and ran

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install firmware-ralink

I also downloaded the default chroot I caan see it on dmesg and lsusb see beelow outputs
