So I’ve just installed Parrot Security OS On my Dell XPS 9370 Which is running the following wifi chipset 02:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32) However I’m unable to get wifi working at all on it. When I first login theres a popup which says wifi networks are available but clicking it does nothing. There doesn’t seem to be a wifi applet either which shows available networks. I’ve tried downloading firmware online for the wifi chipset which hasn’t solved the issue either.
Below are some syslogs which may indicate something to someone but not to me!
