Why are no networks present in the list for wicd or network-manager?.Running 'lshw -class network' as root contains only information about the 'enp0s31f6' interface.Īdditionally for sanity, my 'uname -a': Linux home-z170a-ubuntu 4.4.0-22-generic #39=Ubuntu SMP Thu May 5 16:53: x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux TX packets:412 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 RX packets:412 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0Įnp0s31f6 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 30:5a:3a:e1:96:b1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 It seems the device is working to me, but no new interface is found in 'ifconfig': docker0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:42:6e:bf:92:16

Here is the additional dmesg output I receive when I connect the device to my computer (similar content is present when I boot the computer with the device connected): usb 2-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci The CD contained a URL to a corrupted archive file for downloading installation resources. Unfortunately, I am unable to find any wireless networks using this device using either wicd or network-manager (no networks appear in the list of networks supplied by either application).Ī CD came with the device claiming 'Linux support'. I have purchased a TP-LINK TL-WN823N (EU) V2.0 device, which is a USB device that should work as a Network Interface Card, allowing me to connect my computer to wireless networks.
