  • I dont have internet connection in the system is there any option to download things from windows where my adaptor is working and after install it in the ubunut – Eth0 Jul 12 '17 at 06:50
  • drivers need to be compiled to the kernel you are using. you might be able to find a precompiled one (may give the same performance as the generic one), but normally you download the source and compile it (this gives the best results). it is possible that you could download the sourse from windows – ravery Jul 12 '17 at 06:56
  • Sorry but im not so good at ubuntu if u have the time to tell me how to do that ? – Eth0 Jul 12 '17 at 07:00
  • I don't know where to get it from windows – ravery Jul 12 '17 at 07:12
  • @ravery It is quite unlikely that the three-year-old driver you linked is better than that included in 17.04. – chili555 Jul 12 '17 at 12:44
  • @chili555 -- I use it myself, works better than the ditsro driver which continually disconnects. the only difficulty here is it need to add the divice code for the USB – ravery Jul 12 '17 at 12:48

Please implement the fix outlined here: Ubuntu GNOME 17.04: wi-fi not working -- mac address keeps changing?

Next, please check to see if two possibly conflicting drivers are loaded:

lsmod | grep rtl

If you find that both rtl8192cu and rtl8xxxu are loaded, then blacklist one:

sudo -i
echo "blacklist rtl8192cu"  >>  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit

After making these two changes, reboot and let us hear the result.
