    USB N53 wifi card(rt2870) error 2 when installing modules

    Hello, I have a SSD install of 64 Kali 2016.2 Recently I bought a USBN53 Dual Band wireless-N600 IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n which uses the RT2870 chipset and I am having some trouble getting it to run properly on Kali Linux. I am using Parallels on a 2015 MBP and can connect "wired".

    Version
    Code:
    root@kali:~# uname -a
    Linux kali 4.6.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.6.4-1kali1 (2016-07-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux
    I was following this guide http://askubuntu.com/questions/10295...3-wifi-adapter but when i reached the install modules step (make && sudo make install) it gave me this error
    Code:
    make -C tools
    make[1]: Entering directory '/root/Desktop/2011_1003_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.5.0.0.DPO/tools'
    gcc -g bin2h.c -o bin2h
    make[1]: Leaving directory '/root/Desktop/2011_1003_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.5.0.0.DPO/tools'
    /root/Desktop/2011_1003_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.5.0.0.DPO/tools/bin2h
    cp -f os/linux/Makefile.6 /root/Desktop/2011_1003_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.5.0.0.DPO/os/linux/Makefile
    make -C /lib/modules/4.6.0-kali1-amd64/build SUBDIRS=/root/Desktop/2011_1003_RT3572_Linux_STA_v2.5.0.0.DPO/os/linux modules
    make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.6.0-kali1-amd64/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
    Makefile:243: recipe for target 'LINUX' failed
    make: *** [LINUX] Error 2
    Here are the outputs of some more commands:

      You can make it capture on other/specific channel(s) by using:

          --cswitch  <method>   : Set channel switching method
                        0       : FIFO (default)
                        1       : Round Robin
                        2       : Hop on last
          -s                    : same as --cswitch
    
          --help                : Displays this usage screen
    
    No interface specified.
    Thank You for any help, it is greatly apprecciated
