I am attempting to install a driver for a TP-link TL-WN 823N wireless adapter. I have already posted on this forum, but although I’ve made some progress, I still haven't been successful in getting the wireless set-up to work. I am not very au fait with Ubuntu, and certainly very new to the process of installing drivers.
I followed the suggestions on this forum to use Pilot6’s PPA. However I’m still unable to link to the router for my home PC or the router we use in a small shop I manage.

The code I used as per Pilot6 was:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hanipouspilot/rtlwifi  
sudo apt update  
sudo apt install rtl8192eu-dkms 

This seemed to work OK – no errors. However I still can’t access the internet via the dongle. The dongle does work on my daughter’s PC which runs on Windows.

When I run nmcli dev on my home PC I get the following:

DEVICE /                             TYPE   /      STATE          
enx98ded01807c2        /       wifi       /      disconnected  
eth0                /                      ethernet  /    unavailable  
lo                          /                loopback  /  unmanaged

When I type in lsusb, again on my home PC, I get:

Any help would be gratefully received
