Can it extend the wifi of a device that only broadcasts amd waits to be connected to?

Your question sounds like an HP printer that a mobile device can connect to. This Alfa range boost adapter is not a range extender device. This device is a premium external network adapter that provides exceptional range on wifi5 bands.

Does it support Kali Linux?

I haven't use Kali linux in awhile now I think it works works on 2.4 gigahertz.

Out of the box compatible with Kali Linux (2022.04).

Bought to use with Kali Linux (tested with 2022.04) which I run virtually in Virtual Box and it has worked without problems and did not need to install any drivers. Monitor mode is supported and works as well.
