Hello, I have the same issue, with the same exact adapter.
Trying to copy past the exact codes but it doesn't solve the problem, also the link towards the Drive is not working anymore I think.

There is no guarantee that something intended to work with Mint/Ubuntu will work with Kali. It might work just fine, and it might totally mess up your system. I see that Kali is based on Debian. If you can't find a solution intended to work with Kali, a Debian solution might be closer to your needs. Good luck.

The first command which you mentioned worked flawlessly. But I am still getting a fatal error on the modprobe. Can you please suggest a solution for that?

Check mokutil --sb-state as Secure Boot needs to be disabled, then try a reboot

My TP Link Archer 600 is not getting recognised or driver not getting installed.
On ./sudo: ./dkms-install.sh it simply says command not found.
Please help

I'm quite new to Linux Mint but this forum is already helpful. This instruction works for me in setting up this WLAN adapter; as well troubleshooting this error when it pop " sudo: ./dkms-install.sh: command not found " using " sudo make dkms_install ". Thank you Guys :)
