The picture is not the same as your adapter, but if you take a look at step 3, you'll see that the driver includes your device (RT3592) as well.
And, as a bonus, among the comments you'll find 'tomslee' saying:

Re: Wireless Problem HP 4530s
1) Download the driver (RT3062PCI/mPCI/CB/PCIe(RT3060/RT3062/RT3562/RT3592) from heremaverik123 wrote:Thanks i have downloaded the required driver but the problem is i dont know how to install it? Thanks again for taking pain to educated a novice.
2) Right-click the archive file (DPO_RT3562_3592_3062_LinuxSTA_V2.4.1.1_20101217.tgz9), and select "Extract Here"
3) It will be extracted into a folder called "DPO_RT3562_3592_3062_LinuxSTA_V2.4.1.1_20101217". Now, Right-click this folder and select "Open in Terminal".
4) Now in Terminal, type in the following commands one by one, followed by the "Enter" key:
Code: Select all
sudo su
make
make install
exit
echo "blacklist rt2800pci" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit

Re: Wireless Problem HP 4530s
There is not wirless network shown in my case...only wired , vpn and networkproxy are appearing...
Re: Wireless Problem HP 4530s
Then the driver might not be properly installed, please make sure that it's loaded with inxi -N or sudo mintWifi (no need to type the full /usr/lib/... path).
Also, please run rfkill list to make sure your wifi is not blocked somehow.

Re: Wireless Problem HP 4530s
I think you'll have to use the laptop's wifi on/off button or switch to turn on the wireless. The switch is often above the keyboard, or at the front of the laptop.
If it does not work, you can run:
On HP laptops, you can also boot Windows and enable wifi with HP Wireless Assistant if Linux fails to do so.
If it does not work, you can run:
Code: Select all
sudo rfkill unblock all
