Wilbert:
I have an RaLink wireless dongle (the one without an antennae, about the
size of a coin, sticking out of the USB connection about 1/4 inch). It
looks like the pictures I got searching for Ralink RT5830, but I don't
know if it is the same Ralink wireless hardware. It seems like it used
an rt2800usb driver, but my precise memory of it 'evaporated' as I
started typing this information.
This wireless dongle works with both Lubuntu 14.04, and 16.04. However,
it gets very poor reception from my DSL wireless modem upstairs.
Sometimes it 'sees' my wireless network, and sometimes it doesn't.
When it doesn't 'see' my wireless network, I can't use it.
Sometimes unplugging the wireless dongle, and re-plugging it in will get
it to work. Sometimes a reboot will get to work.
But that's too un-reliable, so I just use a different wireless dongle
(unless it's close to and in line-of-sight of the wireless modem).
