I've been trying to install drivers for my wireless adapter, but it didn't work. I tried TP link original driver but it only supports 3.16.0-30-generic kernel.

I have found the answer to this problem by looking at How to install tp link WN822N to ubuntu?

This method successfully installed the adapter in Lubuntu 16.04. It appears that you have to re-install the driver each time the kernel is updated, which is quite often, but if you follow the instructions at the end and have retained the driver file, it is quite easy.
