Just make a new netvm based on the debian template with all the kali packages installed, (3) here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/pentesting/kali/, and then use qvm-usb to attach the external card to that netvm. Use that netvm as the environment in which you use the USB-nic to do kali pentesting, in monitor or ad-hoc mode for example. I've done this with the exact card you listed, and it works wonderfully. The same can be done with the internal nic after shutting down the netvm that normally grabs your internal nic. Of course, you should consider what other VMs will then auto-connect to the kali-netvm, and put a stop to that. Some usb cards, like tplink chipsets, don't pass through at all with qvm-usb, even though they show up in the usb-vm, and I'm not really sure why... Atheros seems to work as a group though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
