I am just dipping my toes into Linux. I have dual booted Ubuntu on my main machine. Right now I don’t have access at all to a wired connection. I have a TP link archer T2U usb Wi-Fi adapter that I have used and works (on my windows half). However, I can’t use the Wi-Fi adapter because I am missing the drivers on Linux and can’t even install the packages to install the drivers because I am not connected to the internet. My motherboard does not support Wi-Fi so I have to have the adapter and feel stuck without just buying a new adapter that would work innately with Linux.
A new usb Wi-Fi adapter is the way I am leaning I think. I might just be a little in over my head trying to make the one I have work. There is just so much I need to learn but can’t since I can’t change anything without internet. I can’t even play with DEs without a connection.
Get the most generic one you can
