Wifi adapter not working

Support Network

You might need rtl88x2bu

That’s actually for a Realtek WiFi; the OP is using an EDUP WiFi Adapter.
(the ‘rtl’ part of the driver name usually infers Realtek). Cheers.

Please, help others to help you. These tutorials should help:

Which Manjaro are you using?

8

You are using apple hardware judging from the output and your wiif is likely a broadcom device.

Please educate yourself Mac - ArchWiki

This is the only useful information from Neofetch.

Please provide information as mentioned in those links, and good luck. Frankly, I don’t think I have the patience today. Cheers.

Your devices is up and driver loaded - what is the problem?

You could expand by providing data requested from ip - more specifically

ip a
15

To me it appears the wifi adapter is working just fine.

What is the problem?

16

i cant switch to the the wifi dapter and i think it not detected

17

It obviously is detected.
How are you trying to switch to the adapter?
Is your firewall blocking it from connecting?

18

You are not making any sense. Your wifi works fine

What is the problem?

What are you trying to do?

19

EXCEPT if that’s not the device you plugged in, in which case it’s not even detected, so likely a hardware problem.

20

sorry about my english i just want to switch to the wifi adapter cause internet connection so slow and i think from the network card

21

Cable is generally faster than wireless. Not to mention more reliable. Which is why I use a cable myself.

So if you are getting problems with the cable, I doubt wireless will fix it.

22

This is entirely different from “Wifi adapter not working” – You have wasted a lot of time, when you could have simply asked “Why is my Internet so slow?”

The answer to that is, I don’t know. Perhaps it’s your ISP; or, perhaps you expected Wifi to be faster than it is; it isn’t.

23

So you are really asking about a second wifi adapter connected using usb?

The adapter is not recognized as an USB device?

Remove the device and run

lsusb

Insert the device and run

lsusb

What is the difference - if any?

If no difference then adapter is not functional.

i see the defference but is that mean that im connect to the wifi from the wifi adapter?
