Hi!
Sorry for opening this post again, but I still have this problem. I tried with the image perello left there, but no `wlan` in ifconfig or anything else.
I read in another forum which drivers are already installed in ubuntu images (http://forum.loverpi.com/discuss ... 4-114-linux-headers) , and I bought a wifi dongle with a RTL8811AU chip, with no luck at all.

How have you managed to solve it?
I am completely lost...

Sorry again

@Scarcha

What's the kernel message when you plug in the wifi dongle?
This is the message for the RTL8811AU wifi dongle:
dmesg

[ 7919.892530] usb 4-1: new high-speed USB device number 3 using xhci-hcd
[ 7920.005845] usb 4-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0bda, idProduct=c811
[ 7920.005856] usb 4-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3

[ 7920.005868] usb 4-1: Manufacturer: Realtek
[ 7920.005873] usb 4-1: SerialNumber: 123456

I also installed the package rtl8812au-dkms, but the result it was the same as before:

```
firefly@firefly:~$ lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
8812au               1019904  0

firefly@firefly:~$ uname -r

firefly@firefly:~$ iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

firefly@firefly:~$
```

For the TP-Link WIFI (chipset MT7610u) the message is the following:

```
[ 8803.151433] usb 4-1: new high-speed USB device number 4 using xhci-hcd
[ 8803.264833] usb 4-1: New USB device found, idVendor=2357, idProduct=011e
[ 8803.264844] usb 4-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[ 8803.264849] usb 4-1: Product: 802.11ac WLAN Adapter
[ 8803.264855] usb 4-1: Manufacturer: Realtek
[ 8803.264861] usb 4-1: SerialNumber: 00e04c000001
```

With the same result as the previous one



Thanks in advance

Thank you very much for your help.

But I am afraid a noob in terms of modifying kernels.
What should I do exactly? Do I have to download a clean ubuntu image and then compile the kernel manually like the instructions of the webpage you have posted? But how can I add the drivers there?

Sorry
