@KnightHawk you may consider reflashing your SDK image if feasible to mark out things.
Please try unplugging the USB dongle from the USB extension (connected to VOXL2) then plugging it back in and check output of
dmesgon your voxl2. It should say something about the new usb device connected and whether there are any errros.Also, in order to confirm that the wifi dongle itself is working, you could try plugging that into a standard linux PC, it should be recognized.
