Success with kernel 4.15 / Ubuntu 18.04 (b2) #108

I was able to get this working via the 4.15 branch (https://github.com/kaduke/Netgear-A6210/tree/port-to-4.15). I'm on the latest beta release of 18.04 Ubuntu (64 bit / 4.15.0-19-generic kernel), with a fresh install.

I just got ubuntu 18.04 LTS and was able to successfully make and make install using the above link. However, I still get the No Wi-Fi Adapter Found message in Settings after restarting and running sudo service network-manager restart

Any insight or advice? Thanks!

I would unplug the USB device, then plug it in and see if it recognizes it. if it doesn't see the device still, try restarting again.

Appreciate the rapid response! That literally worked right now, perhaps because I also disabled secure boot? Anyway, thank you for posting the 4.15 -- it is what I needed!

nice work. For 17.x I had to tweak the code myself to get it working:)

Has anyone experienced after the computer is idling, that network stops working? I don't get much in the log files other than wlan0: link not ready. Then I restart my machine in order to get network again:(

I have tried take out the adapter and put it back in without luck

Did someone get it working for latest ubuntu 18.04.2 which has kernel 4.18.0-15-generic ?
