Hey
I am planning to use kali linux alongside with my running system as WSL offer its easily. now the problem is my wlan is not working properly. I cant figure out exact problem.
My wireless card is: Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6200

Code:
wifi0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 192.168.0.151 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255
