Though I can see the device listed when I attached this to my ubuntu 20.04 desktop -   using lsusb   -  the same cannot be used to connect to my existing WIFI network ( 30 mbps broadband)

But - I can still use my old ( ten years older i.e Iball Baton USB 300m wifi adapter)  within seconds of it being attached and connect to internet.

Please provide /update the drivers OR fix the issues in the TPlink usb-wifi devices that prevent this from being auto detected and default config by Ubuntu/Linux.

Note - I did not install any drivers for the Iball baton usb wifi ( but it is very old and sees only a single 2.4Ghz band /network only)
