Lsmod grep -E '(rtl 8192)' shows nothing in either case - but in both cases r8712u is absent in lsmod listing without adapter plugged in and in both cases r8712u is present after inserting adapter. This was a problem in Fedora 25I updated to r92su driver. I attach WITHOUT WARRANTY the outline of a script. The steps worked for me.#!/bin/bash Install r92su kernel module replacing r8712u Initial updatesudo apt-get update Install kernel headerssudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers Install gitsudo apt-get install git Clone the rtl8192su repositorycd git clone Make r92su drivercd rtl8192sumake -f Makefile.r92su Create kernel module updates directory and copy new driver to itUPDATES=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updatesif !

I have a Wireless USB Adapter that I wish to install on a Desktop that only has USB 2.0 Ports and although the Adapter is USB 3.0 Compliant, my understanding is that it is Backward compatible with USB 2.0The make and model are as follows: EDUP EP-AC1617.Now it comes with a disk with drivers for Windows – Mac – Linux v3.0.0.1 and I run Mint – Cinnamon – Sarah, so I don’t know if there is a compatibility issue there.Plugging it in does absolutely nothing, not even the light comes on which it does on a Windows Laptop. I don’t want it installed on the Laptop because the built in Wi-Fi already works fine.So the question is: What is the correct procedure for installing these things on Linux? There are heaps of files in the Linux CD folder but none of them say install, so I guess it is a Terminal Command?Any help appreciated,Bob. Thanks Guys, I haven’t completed all the tasks you have set me but I am on the case.In the meantime I can report:1: I plugged an old EDUP USB 2.0 802.11n dongle in and it just worked.2: I thought maybe I had a dud new one, so I dug out a very old XP Computer and Windows recognised the new dongle, asked me to install the drivers which I did and away it went. Unbelievably, on speedtest the fastest in the house, and that includes Win10 Laptops.So, I guess we can safely say the Dongle isn’t faulty and it is backward compatible with USB 2.0.OK, I’ll be back later with the results of the other tests.ThanksBob.
Linux DOC Folder Contents.jpgThen opening the Read Me file produces this:How to make?1. If you want to buid the Linux AP code, set the 'MODE = AP' in Makefileand chose the TARGET to Linux by set 'TARGET = LINUX'2. If you want to build the Linux STA code, set the 'MODE = STA' in Makefileand chose the TARGET to Linux by set 'TARGET = LINUX'3. If you want to buid the uCOS AP code, set the 'MODE = AP' in Makefileand chose the TARGET to UCOS by set 'TARGET = UCOS'4. If you want to build the uCOS STA code, set the 'MODE = STA' in Makefileand chose the TARGET to uCOS by set 'TARGET = UCOS'5.
If you wnat to clean the tree, just 'make clean' it will clean the target and mode you set6. In os/linux/config.mkdefine the GCC and LD of the target machinedefine the compiler flags CFLAGSdefine the linux kernel source include file path LINUXSRCmodify to meet your need.7. For the Linux port, please read /include/rtlinux.h os/linux/rtlinux.c and os/linux/rtmaindev.c8. For the uCOS port, please read /include/rtucos.h os/linux/rtucos.c and os/ucos/rtmaindev.c9. For the Linux Station port, please add the Makefile section in os/linux/Makefile.10. Currently you can build and run on your 2.4.x Linux kernel, 2.6.x not sure and not try yet.11.
This Nighthawk USB WiFi adapter works with Microsoft Windows 7,8,10, (32/64-bit), Mac OS X 10.8.3 or later. Four high-gain internal antennas and explicit Beamforming enhances rate, dependability, and a variety of WiFi links.
