          From the USB identifier (in this case, 13B1:0029, also known as VID_13B1&PID_0029), you can research driver information.



          wikidevi.com is a superb resource to research, and that USB device is https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Linksys_WUSB300N.



          Unfortunately, this device has no Linux driver support. While you could try to Ndiswrapper, you will find that this very old device only has 32-bit NDIS drivers and will not work with 64-bit Ubuntu editions.



          You would be well advised to locate a USB Wi-Fi device with native support.

            USB WiFi adapters sometimes don't enjoy kernel support, or the driver doesn't ship with Linux, as there are so many different kinds available. I have an ralink adapter that I had to install by downloading the driver source, building the driver, and manually patch my kernel. If this is going to be the same case for you, please provide some more info on the actual WiFi adapter that you are trying to use.



            Does it have a series name / model number? Please provide this information, along with the info on how Linux sees it. You can get that by plugging in the device, opening a terminal window (ctrl+alt+t), and in the terminal type :

            sudo lsusb

            And paste that output here.

                    • By searching this issue on google, I don't find any links that suggest building the driver from source is required, but a lot of posts suggest installing ndiswrapper. Specifically on this post: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=873027 it seems the issue was successfully dealt with.
