  • Well, I've tried all the tricks by now. Installed ndisgtk and added the drivers too, but to no avail.then tried the setup for windows through wine. Again, nothing. Now clean reinstall and beginning again. Lsusb recognised it, iwconfig says no wireless extensions. Additional drivers doesn't show this at all

  • I'm on my phone so I can't display outputs. Plus it was never recognised as a wireless device or as a usb

  • Do you mean that lsusb doesn't show your device at all? Without some details, we cannot help you.

I added the [2001:3319] ID to Realtek USB driver and it works.

Install it for Xenial this way:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi
sudo apt update
sudo apt install rtl8192eu-dkms
