Changing to STA only mode prevents dongle from working #103

Installed all drivers fine on Raspberry Pi running Raspbian Stretch (all updated and upgraded) and it worked fine. However, when I reinstalled with non-concurrent mode the dongle stopped working. It installed fine but no wlan interfaces were found,

I thought it could have been due to me uninstalling making then reinstalling so I tried it on another pi I have (this time Stretch lite) but the dongle still didn't work. I redid it in concurrent mode and it worked fine.

I don't get why non-concurrent won't work for me?

uname -a returns (xxxx are my pi's name) Linux xxxxxx 4.14.34+ #1110 Mon Apr 16 14:51:42 BST 2018 arm61 GNU/Linux
