    Witam, niedawno kupiłem TP-LINK TL-WN725N (wifi na usb) i mam problem z instalacja na pepermint linux ( bazuje na ubuntu) robiłem paroma sposobami z google oraz ostatnia :

    """""step 1.
    Installation of Ubuntu from CD.

    Step 2.
    I updated the system.
    Next I used following command to see linux version: uname -a
    Result: Linux martien-P5K 3.5.0-36-generic #57~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 20 15:22:35 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    So I have kernel version: 3.5.0-36-generic

    Step 3
    Insert the USB adapter and give command: lsusb
    This shall display the wireless adapter:
    Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
    Step 4
    Execute command: sudo apt-get install git
    Execute command: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic
    Step 5
    Download the USB adapter sources from:
    https://github.com/liwei/rpi-rtl8188eu
    Look for the "Download zip" at the right side of the window.
    Move the zip-file to the home-directory (perhaps there is a better choice such as /temp).
    Step 6
    Unzip the file with command: unzip rpi-rtl8188eu-master.zip
    Next command: cd rpi-rtl8188eu-master
    Now compile with command: make
    You will see a lot of messages. If all goes well you will have a file named
    8188eu.ko. You can check this with the command: ls - l
    Next command: sudo make install
    Next command: sudo insmod 8188eu.ko

    Step 7
    If all is well the device driver is up and running.
    The command: ifconfig
    will show something like:
    eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1e:8c:be:00:2b
    ..
    lo Link encap:Local Loopback
    ..
    wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr f8:1a:67:0e:e7:39
    ..
    Step 8
    Look for the icon "System Settings" on the left toolbar and click "network". Here you should also see the wireless network.
    Open it and configure the ssid and security settings.
    Unplug the cable and try if it works. """" z martiensblog.blogspot

    i nic nie pomogło jak ktoś ma jakieś pomysły proszę o podanie ich i niech się wypowiadają osoby które się znają a nie te co coś znajdą w google i nie wiedza co i jak ale chcą nabić posty >.<

    pozdrawiam i czekam na szybkie odp (chwilowo komputer na eternet ale potrzebne wifi - brak miejsca )

    what ubuntu do you install?
    I have detected this adapter normally when installing 13.10, I use it on a stationary machine and there are no problems.

    The most important thing is probably not to use the repo liwei only with repo lwfinger

    The following procedure works for me:

    sudo su -
    apt-get install git
    apt-get install build-essential
    apt-get install linux-headers-generic

    mkdir tplink
    cd tplink
    git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu.git

    cd rtl8188eu /

    make
    make install

    insmod 8188eu.ko

    Good luck!

    Hello
    Help me please
    I refresh the topic because the procedure given by my colleague Rymasz stops when I enter make and I get the following message:

    root @ debian home ania tplink rtl8188eu make
    make ARCH i386 CROSS COMPILE C lib modules 2.6.32-5-686 build M home ania tplink rtl8188eu modules
    make lib modules 2.6.32-5-686 build No such file or directory. Stop.
    make modules Error 2
    (certain signs are missing due to forum restrictions)

    The downloaded package of files is complete I tried with downloaded from several places and different ways.
    I also tried rtl8192du, rtl8192su, rtl8192cu with the same result.

    I am trying to install the driver for TP-LINK TL-WN725N V1.
    I use a laptop on a celeron intel
    Debian 6.0.10 (squeeze)
    Gnome 2.30.2

    Regards and I am asking for help because there are no ideas.

    Hello
    I'm sorry for the delay

    After adding this line, Debian asks for an update, but I don't have internet because I'm just trying to run wifi, but I stop at the same error. So I understand that I have to look for a link on the cable, otherwise I will not get through it ??

    Hello

    I would like to thank my colleague Rymasz for his help, the extra line helped and the equipment works.

    For those interested in the topic as a curiosity the rlt8188eu drivers probably work for the device in v2 version, I had the v1 version and rtl8192cu drivers to download from the same page worked.

    Regards

    For me, it stops at make install and crashes:
    install -p -D -m 644 8188eu.ko /lib/modules/3.16.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko
    install: Unable to create regular file "/lib/modules/3.16.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko": Access denied
    Makefile: 152: commands for 'install' object failed
    make: *** [install] Error 1

    I managed to use sudo.
    However, I have another problem, after using insmod 8188eu.ko, it crashes:
    insmod: ERROR: could not insert module 8188eu.ko: Operation not permitted

    You know what thanks, I'm not sitting on linux since yesterday, and I'm making basic mistakes like no sudo. :P
