I've been busy replacing FerenOS on my youngest's machine with Q4OS. This until today only worked with a Netgear WG111v3 out of the box. Decided I would finally do some research and found this gem:
What is bizarre is that I am writing this with said dongle attached, but the green led does not show at all. Q4OS is based on Debian 12 (bookworm). After entering the commands in the terminal, connected instantly.
I have the same wifi stick because i had to replace the internal wifi nvme card that Microsoft killed after updates in Windows 10. The card is completely dead and i posted about it 2-3 years ago about it here. The stick it self works out of the box in zorin 17.x. In the past it did not (fix 1 and fix 2]. Here a screenshot from a working green light
Well it seems mine has no green light either anymore. The wifi stick works fine though.
The model is the same, T2U it says on my usb stick.
I shouldn't worry about the green light. When the machine booted into Windows 11 it was flashing away merrily!
