I been searching for a solution for weeks and can't figure it out. Tried researching the maze of backports and downloading but I don't even know if that's the answer and doubt I did it correctly anyhow.

I am also trying to connect wifi pineapple in Kali, however the result is the same I don't see its ip 172.16.46.1. I feel its related.

I have included my configs, I hope someone knows what up. Thank you in advance

Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

A VirtualBox guest has limited access to physical hardware and the only way with wifi is using a USB adapter. The virtual network adapter always appears as wired to the guest regardless of the actual host device.

Did i explain myself correct Windows is Host, VB is guest with Kali and my best and only effective solution is go get a USB adapter !? Which one do you recommend for me

Maybe not, is this wifi pineapple a USB adapter or just software? If it is a USB adapter then you have to connect it to the guest in the devices pull down menu.

If it just software then yes you need a USB adapter in order for the guest to access physical hardware.

hmm, yes wifi pineapple is USB connected and can possibly be used as adapter. It adds ASIX adapter when connected.

otherwise

No, but a web search should provide some information.

great, thx for possible out with the pineapple. Otherwise if I was to swap wifi cards, do you have a suggestion for which and or what would best adapter for me

A VirtualBox guest can not directly access a built in or PCI wireless adpater. It has to be a USB device.

You connect a USB device to the guest using the devices -> USB pull down menu of the virtual machine but you first need to install guest additions.

Sorry, I don't have any suggestions.

I am clear, now. On the hunt for new adapter
