First, try to use something like Private Internet Access to get a route outside of Xfinity. They seem to do DNS interception and change the IPs of what you want to access. You might be able to get away with editing the /etc/hosts file in the Kali WSL to use 192.99.200.113 for "http.kali.org" and 104.189.102.100 and 104.18.103.100 for "kali.download". If you run nslookup http.kali.org and it comes back 96.118.22.105 they're using parental controls to redirect you to their website to tell you that you are doing something you shouldn't.

My /etc/apt/sources.list:
└─# more sources.list
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib


No VPN and connected to XFinity:

└─# apt update

If it's past 2022 and you need GPG to import a new key for Kali/apt, perform the below. I had imported a new GPG key first and then used my Private Internet Access VPN, which showed the nslookup results gave different IPs.

Install Ubuntu 20.04LTS, login and get to a command prompt. Navigate to \\wsl$\Ubuntu in file explorer and \\wsl$\kali-linux in a copy of the explorer window. You'll need to copy some files over from the Ubuntu distro in order to update the GPG key for Kali to run updates.

For WSL:

1. navigate to \\wsl$\Ubuntu\usr\lib\x86_86-linux-gnu and copy the following libraries (on the right side). Make sure to sudo ln -s. Right side is filename, the left side is the symlink file.
libsqlite3.so.0 -> libsqlite3.so.0.8.6
libassuan.so.0 -> libassuan.so.0.8.3
libksba.so.8 -> libksba.so.8.11.6
libnpth.so.0 -> libnpth.so.0.1.2

2. copy the \\wsl$\ubuntu\usr\bin\ files to \\wsl$\kali\usr\bin and chmod 755 the files:
gpg*
dirmngr*


3. gpg --keyserver pgpkeys.mit.edu --recv-key ED444FF07D8D0BF6
4. Connect to VPN.
5. sudo apt-get update
