    Cant install drivers for d-link DWA-121 wireless adapter ubuntu 12.04 LTS

    I tryed this instructons on d-link.com :

    support OS and kernel version : LINUX (kernel 2.6.18 ~ 2.6.37)
    install:
    1. tar zxvf rtl8192CU_linux_v2.0.1406.20110309.tar.gz
    2. cd rtl8192CU_linux_v2.0.1406.20110309
    3. make
    4. su
    5. make install
    6. reboot

    And I get errors on step 3 "3.make"...

    support OS and kernel version : LINUX (kernel 2.6.18 ~ 2.6.37)
    The problem may be that Ubuntu 12.04 has a much newer kernel.

    http://askubuntu.com/questions/22768...reless-drivers

    this guy here says he installed it on 12.4 ....

    if you still think it is a kernel problem what do I do then...beacuse this is relly frustrating....First I cant enable my build in atheros wireless card and now this doesnt work too ;(

    Shoud I install some older ubuntu version that have older kernel??

    Well, maybe, but there are no further details on how he got it working.
