This is real bug :clap:LOL
Mate try to open setting / control

And see if not
Can you really have driver (if using external hardware for WiFi)
Or inbuilt wifi adaptor

If really have plz open
airgeddon (weird but wanted to check that scan or not
Possible graphic error or Mate DE error as hope)
After opening airgeddon you get wireless adaptor option
If yes then send screenshot so we see which hardware it is

Isn’t there any other option?

Devs Working so they are bisy
And i am noob , so i have no idea possible there is other way
Can you try airgeddon
I just wanted to know that hardware mounted or not
By scan it via script
In terminal type
airgeddon or wifite
If they show you your woreless hardware (and best is if wifite is start then it is mounted just not showing option in MATE DE)
service network-manager restart
nmcli networking on

11

$airgeddon
bash: airgeddon: command not found
I get this

12

Follow last 2 lines
Service vali bhai

13

han maine last two commands run ki hai
service network-manager restart
nmcli networking on

lekin phir bhi kuch nai hua

14

But can it working on windows?
If yes plz reinstall Old version of Parrot

First, sory for my bad english. I am having problem with wifi adapter and network manager. Every time i run “Fern wifi cracker " and select interface” wlan0 " - it kill my network manager,and program cant detect any network… Restart in terminal dont make diference. Only restart pc. If it is any cure for this , i am listening. Thanks.

Parrot Security 4.4 -32bit

16

maybe type
airmon-ng interface name stop
and
service name1 restart

interface: wlan0 , wlan0mon & wlan1 (which you see on your screen)
name1 = network-manager

17

maybe type
ip a
&
airmon-ng
airmon-ng interface_name start or airmon-ng start interface_name
airodump-ng interface_name
if you see any network… it means your wifi work…
and try to downgrade your Parrot… if wifi not work properly…

18

My Wifi disappears every time I reboot. Only turn off, turn on works.

19

its in Monitor mode vs Managed.

@b1ttu
@gustavo7845

You could also just use the hardware lister application you find under menu>system tools…it shows all the various functional components (pci, net devices/interfaces, cpu, bios) with information on each. If the wireless device is installed it should appear there with a note on saying “disabled”, if you still can’t find it you should make sure the device is properly installed.

Also I notice @gustavo7845 I notice the second of the network devices your lshw shows is an ethernet interface though its logical name shows it is connect by usb so in your commands you might try substuting “usb0” for “wlan(*)”. I assuming there is a usb device in the picture? yes?

We could and see of a OS service problem with “systemctl --failed” and “dmesg” (need root priveledge on both)
