Compatwireless20100626ptar Patched

If you are looking to get your Wi-Fi adapter working in Kali Linux (especially on a VirtualBox VM), using the compat-wireless-2010-06-26-p

• Applied upstream and local patches to fix build errors with modern 2.6/3.x kernels.
• Fixed race in ath9k module initialization causing module load failures.
• Hardened IOCTL handling to prevent potential input validation issues.
• Updated module device ID lists for brcm and rt2x00 drivers.
• Added packaging scripts for easier distribution builds.

• mac80211 subsystem backport
• cfg80211 API
• Drivers for Atheros (ath9k, ath5k), Ralink, Broadcom (b43), Intel (iwlwifi), and others.

• Alfa AWUS036H (Realtek RTL8187L): The king of 2009-2011. The standard kernel driver was okay, but patched compat-wireless gave it massive range and injection speeds.
• Atheros AR9271 (TP-LINK TL-WN722N): The first widely available 802.11n adapter with monitor mode. The 2010-06-26 snapshot was critical because it included the initial support for ath9k_htc, the driver for these USB devices.
• Intel Pro Wireless (iwlwifi): Often a headache for hackers. The compat-wireless stack was essential to get newer Intel firmware blobs working on stable kernels.
