    The device is model WNA3100-100ENS but I do not know the chipset. Can you check in Device Manager in Windows? Also did you plug in the card after Xiaopan boots up?

    I had the same problem but with other wireless card !
    I switched to VMWare Workstation and it worked like a charm :) Try it and let me know if that works for you :)

    there is an option to enable usb storage, perhaps because it does not recognize it, is located in the bottom of the screen when you run it, such as to synchronize the mouse virtually, if you are looking for and recognizes the wifi board you use, maybe you can lift

    save your 5$ and buy a supported card the only way to use this card is with ndiswrapper which is pointless in xiaopan.
