I followed the instructions on another post about installing the driver for an ASUS wifi adapter. Unfortunately, I don't know what to do after that. I'm VERY new to Linux and was hoping that the system would recognize the adapter after installing it.
The adapter is ASUS USB-AC53 Nano Dual-band. I have the correct USB ports available to use this adapter.
Thanks for the help.

Re: New ASUS wifi adapter
the instructions for setting WiFi adapters is very specific to the model of the adapter.
e.g., my ASUS uses a MT7630e and if you tried to follow along with any of my threads,
I doubt it will work at all for your adapter as it is a different manufacturer.
