A new usb Wi-Fi adapter is the way I am leaning I think. I might just be a little in over my head trying to make the one I have work. There is just so much I need to learn but can’t since I can’t change anything without internet. I can’t even play with DEs without a connection.

I the reason I have started with Ubuntu is there is so much information easy for me to find on it. Is Debian the same way? Is it pretty easy for a person really new to Linux?

It seems like everything I have found needs to be opened with some package downloaded through the terminal and I can’t access them without internet. I will keep looking for a run and done thing.

I Found drivers but the install pdf that came with them needed me to install gcc. Since I don’t have internet I couldn’t do that.
