No network card ax210 can be found in the virtualbox image system

I use the virtualbox mirror system kali-linux-2024.4-virtualbox-amd64.

The network card is inter ax210

I remember that kali supports this network card, but I cannot see the network card in the virtual machine by using the command airmon-ng.

I don’t know why?

thank you

Did you pass it through as an usb device? Made sure to try the different usb standards? If you did - what is the output of

lsusb

Thank you for your reply.
I forgot to mention that I’m using a laptop.
I used an M.2 to Mini PCIe adapter.

Even using lspci | grep Ethernet,
the AX210 network card cannot be seen;
only the wired network card of the laptop is visible.

Your virtualbox kali runs entirely on virtual hardware, that has nothing whatsoever to do with the hardware the host machine is build from. That M.2 adapters will not be accessible inside a virtual machine.

The only workaround is to use an usb device that can be passed through the hypervisor to the virtual machine.

It’s actually not the build in ethernet adapter that your VM sees, it’s an entirely different, virtual one.

So I have to buy a new usb card?

If I were in your shoes, I would just accept that he virtual machine has not wifi access and carry on, it’s not necessary for the vast majority of things, and wifi hacking is vastly overrated.

Your other option would be to install kali as the base operating system.

Hey ,i have flashed kali 2024.4 through magisk ,whenever i use lsusb it gives no result, (it randomly gave 2 times, but again no result) im using tp link ac600 and connected it through a type A to typing C converter
