If you ran the command lsusb
and find that your device is 0846:9053, then your device is driven by a very new driver, mt7662u_sta. Please get a temporary internet connection by ethernet, tethered or whatever means possible, open a terminal and do:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/jurobystricky/Netgear-A6210.git
cd Netgear-A6210
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe mt7662u_sta
According to the github page:
This is work in progress. The driver is functional. However, there are
still several issues that need to be addressed. In particular,
hot-unplugging may cause the network manager to segfault. After
plugging the dongle back in, you may need to restart the manager:
$ sudo service network-manager restart
Of course, you can avoid this by not plugging or unplugging the device unless the computer is shut off.
You have compiled the driver for your current kernel version only. When Update Manager installs a newer kernel version, also known as linux-image, after the requested reboot, recompile:
cd Netgear-A6210
make clean
make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe mt7662u_sta
Please retain the file and these instructions for that time.
