Irecently got a wireless adapter (TP-Link Archer T2UH V1). After plugging it in, I found out that the drivers for Linux are not native on Ubuntu. They do, however, have the drivers available for download (in the form of compilable/ makefile). What I am not sure of is how to install these drivers. I know that I need to build the drivers, place things where they need to be, and tie things together with the kernel. I am not sure how to do this, however, and need some help.

I have a TP-Link T2U Wi-Fi adapter and I was in struggle to find a working driver for Ubuntu 18.10. All the drivers, original and modified, was for previous version of the kernel but nothing useful for the 4.15 kernel. After a painful morning I found a working link to run the TP-Link T2U on the latest kernel.


After these steps the device should work. If you want the driver to work after the updating the kernel I advise to follow the next steps that includes the dkms utility. You will need to work in the directory "mt7610u-linksys-ae6000-wifi-fixes" otherwise the process will not work.


In order to change the TP-Link wireless settings I had to go to their site and download the Powerline Utility (for Mac in my case). To do so I went to the Download center, looked for my model of wireless adapter and under the Utility tab I found the link to the application.


It is worth mentioning that Intel does not support wireless integrations (installing a different wireless adapter into your system/laptop). We recommend you speak to the Manufacturer of your equipment for support on wireless integrations and replacement parts to ensure compliance with the regulatory requirements of your country and support. It is important to check for compatibility with the System Manufacturer, as there could be certain cards that will not work with the system.


Besides, Intel doesn't support and is not aware of the support or drivers of third-party products such as the Archer wireless cards. If you need assistance with this product specifically, contact the proper manufacturer of this card.


Thanks for your response! Yes I removed the old wireless card and disconnected the connector, inserted the new wireless card into the same PCIe slot and plugged the new card into the motherboard. The old card is no longer in the computer.



@Jocelyn_Intel Thanks for your response as well! That is all good information to know. To be honest I did think it was weird that their driver pack brought me to the intel site. The card came with a CD installation, but my PC does not have a CD rom so their instructions send you to their home page, and when you click on the driver download for that model card it redirects to the intel driver download site. I guess my whole problem is that I'm weirded out that its using the intel drivers, that it works with different intel drivers than the ones it had me download, and mainly that my PC isn't recognizing it as the card that it is but as an intel wireless Adapter. All very strange, but I appreciate the info.



@Podaen Thanks for that link! I will try that. Those steps look very similar to what I have tried a couple times except for using a different PCIe slot and trying to show hidden devices, I'll have to look around for that, but I thought I could see my wireless adapter, and I was selecting uninstall while also checking "remove associated drivers" and then when I was reinstalling the drivers it was showing up as the same wireless adapter rather than the new one of the different brand. But anyway thanks a bunch for taking time to post that help, much appreciated!
