Hi everyone,
I recently bought a Wi-Fi USB Adapter to use wifi on my kali. I state that I have installed it on VMware Workstation version 10 and kali recognizes the card.
root@kali:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter

On my windows 7 it works, I can see every router but here I can't. The driver seem installed because I see the card but regardless I can't see anything.
At last I tried to check syslog with 3 steps:
1) unplug the card
2) tail the syslog
3) plug the card
Here the result:
root@kali:~# tail -n 0 -f /var/log/syslog

Anyone can help me? Thanks.
