I have just bought an Edimax EW-7711UTn wireless adaptor with CD. I have the Linux folder on the CD. Folder name 2009_0525_RT3070_Linux_STA_v2.1.1.0.
How do I install from this folder
Step by step instructions would be much appreciated.

Maybe there is an easier way. Please open a terminal and run and post:We only need to see the line for your wireless device, evidently a Ralink.Code:lsusb uname -r lsmod | grep rt2
