I recently dual booted kali Linux with windows 10. When I log into Kali Linux no WIFI connection shows up, in network setting. The only thing I see is "wired" I am not running off a wired connection so I could use some help please! Do I need to be connected to a wired connection to be able to install the correct files from terminal? As of now I have tried the commands to install updates etc.. But wont work because no internet!

Will you be able to provide a screenshot?
Does it show, "Wired Network, device not managed", If yes then try to do the following:
1. Open Terminal and do the following
nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
you will something like:
....
[ifupdown]
managed=false
2. Set the second parameter that is managed to true. So if should look like:
....
[ifupdown]
managed=true
3. Save and exit to terminal and execute the following:
service network-manager restart
See if this works

I'm guessing driver issues.
-
If you are using Vm, dont forget to install CD,, for drivers.. otherwise update it..
works for me fine..

YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY GRINDS MY GEARS ..
When a motherfucker asks for help but never comes back and responds to people that are trying to help :o

Thank you I figured it out I just bought a TP-Link Wireless USB plugin automatically detects WIFI
-
Glad you got it to work .. TP-Links work nice . ive never had to install a driver with them and they work on my phone like a champ .

Ive had to make drivers for a couple TP-Link adapters in the past, although they worked OK to connect to wireless networks. There are quite a few that aren't able to actually inject packets out of the box, probably the little cheap crappy ones, so sometimes Ive had to install different firmware and kernels to actually get packet injection working.
Ive also found in a couple of instances that when Ive installed a fresh build of Kali and used integrated wireless on laptops, for some strange reason the kernel its decided to use wants to start up with wireless in airplane mode, would work with the "ifconfig up", "mode managed" but still strange why it decided to do that every boot, because I changed kernel's and it stopped doing it.
A lot of the newer TP-link adapters do tend to work straight out the box though. Its just annoying when you feel like doing some sniffing and then it turns out that your adapter comes in multiple Revisions and luck just has it your revision requires patching... its all good fun though hey ;D
