Trying to configure more than one wifi device on Qubes

[bill]

I was attempting to configure a second wifi adapter in Qubes alongside my primary one. I want to use the 2nd adapter for my non-Whonix browsing, which I want to use with a VPN. The primary adapter will be using a raw non-VPN signal for Tor.

I cloned a second sys-net (named sys-net2) VM for this purpose. I plugged the 2nd adapter to the usb port, which sys-usb recognized and shows up in lsusb. However when I share the device to sys-net2, it doesn’t show up when I type lsusb. What could be the issue?
