Jul 01, 2019 Getting a good USB wireless adapter to work with Linux used to be a problem but less so now with many available. It is the chipset of a WiFi dongle that makes it compatible with Linux. Popular USB adpaters Chipsets include the Ralink 3070, Atheros AR9271, and Realtek 8187. Below is our favorite picks for USB adapters that are known to work with Linux.
I just bought a Realtek wireless-n usb adapter and I'm having problems installing it to my Linux OS laptop. It will not run the setup.exe. It is a Ultra-Mini USB Wireless Lan 802.11N Adapter - 1T1R and I bought it at monoprice.com. Where can I go to and download the proper driver?
You likely don't need to install anything. The drivers for many of the Realtek wireless adapters are already in-tree. I have an 8192CU myself.
At least the following RT chipsets are supported:

.exe
) under Linux. They're different. Linux uses ELF , and regardless the libraries seutp.exe

I've searched everywhere for drivers, but could not find anything. Any help?
Thanks
ZannaFinally! We do have a native Linux driver for 0bda:f179 RTL8189FTV! The only thing is that it needs some expertise to use (and Internet).
The driver is not mainline, so Ubuntu and derivatives do not have it.
The driver is here. Its called rtl8188fu.
Download the entire repository as zip. Then, in the Makefile, add -Wno-error=date-time
as an EXTRA_CFLAGS
. Basically, add the line:
Then, compile with make. After successful compile, you will get: 8188fu.ko
then (as root) do:
That's it. It will work now. I have compiled it for 16.04 LTS (4.4.0-138-generic), so the compatibility of the driver is pretty good.
The situation regarding 18.04 is slightly complicated, as the driver hasn't been updated for over an year.
I have made changes to the driver to work with 18.04 4.15.0-38 kernel, and it works.
Output of uname -a:
Output of usb-devices (on 18.04):
I have uploaded both the module and the fixed drivers on my Google Drive. The module will work for 4.15.0-38-generic and this is the kernel against which I have compiled the source.
KulfyYou can install rtl8188fu driver with dkms via this repo (has install instruction).
As of the date of this answer there is no support for the 0bda:f179 Realtek WiFi adapter. You would likely be better off obtaining a natively supported device.
There's a list of WiFi adapters supported by the kernel here that you might find useful.
There's also a query page where you can check to see if your device has kernel support.
Edit: Realtek PCI ID is 10ec, their USB ID is 0bda so if you find a driver that supports 10ec:f179 that might be worth trying.
If you have a Windows driver for the device you could also try using ndiswrapper.
Elder GeekElder Geek@Butterly's answer worked for me. But I will write out the steps here to make it clearer for others (copy/pasted from https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu):
After you are done, reinsert the wifi dongle and if you ifconfig
, you should now have a new device present.
Finally The Driver installation process for USB DEVICE 802.11 bgn which looks like Realtek Semiconductor when done lsusb
uses RTL8188fu drivers and proper installation procedure is found at rtl8188fu linux driver for wireless bgn device.
There is no need to reboot. Thanks a lot
zx485I've tried in my Debian Strech Kernel 4.9.0-6-amd64 and after the build and install from this repo the dongle can find networks, but can't acomplish connections.
So, in order to fix this issue, I've changed Makefile
to disable powersaving and enable monitor mode (because i've needed, not sure if this have something to do with the issue) on lines 40 and 61 like that:
Now works fine.
So, for Debian Strech kernel 4.9.0-6-amd64:
I hope can help someone facing this problem.
Thank you!
