Briefly describe your issue below:
Hi all. I tried finding similar issues but didn’t see any so hopefully nothing missed. I’m running Parrot as my host OS. The internal wireless card works great (Intel AC9650). I purchased an Alfa AWUS1900 to use as my monitor card for pentesting. I’ve verified the firmware package is installed and the card does show up under lsusb but I cannot find a way to actually enable it. The only card I can see through ifconfig/iwconfig is the Intel card.
I’m still fairly new so I don’t know if I’m missing something obvious or not. From what I gather looking around Google for a fix, it seems some variants of Linux only support one wireless card? Hopefully Parrot isn’t one of them.
Thank you anyone willing to assist. It is much appreciated.
