I've been trying to install drivers for my wireless adapter, but it didn't work. I tried TP link original driver but it only supports 3.16.0-30-generic kernel.

  • Please edit and add details about what you already tried. Most likely you will need to undone so... –  Sep 23 '16 at 22:35
  • well i work for this 5 days really dont remember nothing now – Sheldorion Sep 23 '16 at 22:46
  • I would consider reinstalling Ubuntu, full update and test again. If not fixed then ask again. –  Sep 23 '16 at 22:50
  • when i was first open it isnt work why i want to reinstall my system _ – Sheldorion Sep 23 '16 at 22:53
  • I said I would consider it, not telling you to. But here's the problem: You probably made a mess already and diagnosing it may now require a back and forth which simply put isn't compatible with the Q&A format of AskUbuntu. You may try posting at the Ubuntu Forums. –  Sep 23 '16 at 22:56
  • Hi. I have the same problem too. Although I'm running elementaryOS loki instead of Ubuntu. Did you ever find a solution for this? I've created another thread and was hoping maybe someone here can help me. – ads Oct 29 '16 at 01:46

I have found the answer to this problem by looking at How to install tp link WN822N to ubuntu?

This method successfully installed the adapter in Lubuntu 16.04. It appears that you have to re-install the driver each time the kernel is updated, which is quite often, but if you follow the instructions at the end and have retained the driver file, it is quite easy.
