I'm running Linux in a VM on a Mackbook M2, and UTM to use Parrot OS. My wifi adapter is connected to a USB connecter, and when I use the command lspci, the following letters appear:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Red Hat, Inc. QEMU PCIe Host bridge 00:01.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio network device 00:02.0 Display controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio GPU (rev 01) 00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01) 00:04.0 USB controller: NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev 03) 00:05.0 USB controller: Red Hat, Inc. QEMU XHCI Host Controller (rev 01) 00:06.0 SCSI storage controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio block device 00:07.0 Communication controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio console 00:08.0 Unclassified device [00ff]: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio RNG 00:09.0 Unclassified device [00ff]: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio memory balloon

And when I do ifconfig, only enp0s1 and lo appear, not wlan0. What I can't understand is that if I run Kali linux and do the same thing, wlan0 successfully appears. What should I do?

  • What should you do: This sounds like you should run neither Kali nor Parrotsec, but a fully-fledged user distro, like Debian, Ubuntu or Fedora, where networking things aren't disabled/restricted by default as much :) Commented Aug 8, 2023 at 9:28
  • By the way, I saw that from your device list, but I will add "I'm running a VM" to your question, if you don't mind. Commented Aug 8, 2023 at 9:31
  • so, couple of things: 1. Things connected via USB do not appear in lspci. 2. It's up to your VM control software to decide whether and how USB devices are forwarded to the VM, so you need to look there first. Commented Aug 8, 2023 at 9:33
