I've been trying for hours to install the driver for my Edimax Wifi USB adapter, and I need to connect to my 5G internet (the 2.4 disconnects regularly and is atrociously slow).
I have the Edimax AC450 EW-7711ULC, and I'm running Ubuntu 16.04. I've tried two methods to install the driver, both to no avail.
At first, I tried installing using the official driver from the Edimax website (http://ift.tt/2aT5NV9). I got a date-time error, which I resolved, but more and more errors occured when I used 'make', so I had to try a different method.
I used ndiswrapper to install the driver for Windows. Ndiswrapper installed it and detected the adapter, but the adapter itself will not work.
Just for reference, here are my outputs for ifconfig, iwconfig, lsmod, and lshw -C network.
