Hello,

I am trying to make an Alfa awus036achm with chipset Mediatek MT7610U working on Kali without success. I also installed the firmware-misc-nonfree package and the driver is present in the /lib/firmware/mediatek directory. Kali is running under vmWare fusion 11.5.7 but I have never had any issues with this configuration and many other Alfa adapters. I did also a test to see if the adapter works, on a Raspberry with Raspbian Bullseye and it was fine. I am not very skilled, any idea?

Here are some diagnostic:

Code:
