I am new to Linux.
I installed Ubuntu 16.04 desktop ...
It didn't discover my DLink DWA-171 AC thumb drive wireless network device ...
The dlink site shows a Linux driver download for this device but it will not come up to let you download it.
Where can I search for the driver and how would I go about installing it ?
