Here the good news, I tested the TP-LINK WN821N USB adapter and it seems to work properly in Kali Linux 2016.x installed in VMware Fusion (VMware Fusion 8.5.3 on Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6). The TP-LINK WN821N is athereos based and it supports 802.11n standard at 300 Mbps and it is quite cheap. You can buy it on Amazon HERE.
